With their arrest, two more sensational cases of house robberies reported at PS Keshav Puram have also been worked out.

Brief facts of the case are that on 22.6.15, Sh. Rajesh (name changed) r/o Saraswati Vihar, Delhi reported in PS Rani Bagh that on 17.6.15 at 11.25 AM, he received a telephonic call from an unknown caller who demanded Rs. 30 lacs and threatened to kidnap his child if money is not paid. The caller also sent a threatening ‘SMS’. On 19.6.15 and 20.6.15, complainant again received the extortion calls with a threat to face with dire consequences if the matter reported to the police. The caller was very well acquainted with the family background of the complainant. Fearing imminent danger to the safety and security of his family, the complainant reported the matter to police. Immediately, a case vide FIR No.457/15 dated 22.6.15 u/s 387 IPC was registered at PS Rani Bagh and investigation was taken up. 

Considering the gravity of the matter, a joint team comprising Inspr. Shyam Sunder I/C Spl. Staff/NWD, Inspr.

On 25.6.15 at the instance of one informer a person was detained from the area of Prem Nagar railway crossing near Jakhira. The person identified as Ajeet who initially denied his involvement but later spilled the beans. The mystery of extortion plan unraveled.  The mobile phone from which the extortion calls were made to the complainant was recovered from his possession. Thereafter, the police team immediately rushed and arrested the mastermind Shivam @ Shibbu r/o Nihal Vihar.

Interrogation of arrested accused persons revealed that the entire conspiracy was hatched by complainant’s nephew Shivam @ Shibbu who was assisted by Ajeet. It revealed that Shivan was not satisfied with the weak financial condition of his father and required money for his family. He was working as a labour with Ajeet who worked as Contractor in shoe factories functional in the area of Tri Nagar, Delhi.

Accused Shivam felt highly jealous of his uncle’s progress. Few months back he had seen his uncle arranging and paying lakhs of rupees for the treatment of his grandfather with an ease. Thereafter, he hatched the plan to extort money from his uncle. In order to execute his plan, he roped in Ajeet and guided him to make extortion calls to his uncle demanding Rs.30 lakh on the first day. Later on, they started bargaining and lowered their demand to 20 lakh. When complainant pleaded time for arranging money, they gave him time for one day but in the meanwhile they were arrested.  

During sustained interrogation, accused Shivam and Ajeet also disclosed of their involvement in two more sensational cases of house robberies committed few months back in the area of Tri Nagar. In one of the two robberies, they had tied the hands and legs of the lady present in the house and committed robbery by showing pistol.
