Delhi Police arrest Nigerian drug trafficker wanted in NDPS case: More details inside

In the JNU student protest case, the Patiala House Court on Friday granted bail to all the accused students. The court directed that each of the accused furnish a bail bond of Rs. 25,000. The court has also ordered verification of the bail bonds. The developments come after student protestors of JNU on Thursday, led by JNUSU, were detained by Delhi Police after they took out a protest against Vice-Chancellor Santishree D Pandit. After the police locked the university doors and prevented protestors from crossing the barricades, they met with a scuffle, following which the police detained several protestors. Earlier today, the Delhi Police accused the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) student protestors of physically assaulting the security personnel. The Delhi Police stated that the student protestors turned violent and "pelted banners and sticks, threw shoes, and even bit the personnel," following which those who violated the law were detained. "During the protest, barricades were damaged, and the demonstration turned violent. Protestors pelted banners and sticks, threw shoes, and even physically assaulted Delhi Police personnel, including biting. As a result, several police personnel were injured. The protestors were stopped and contained at the North Gate of the JNU campus and were gradually moved back inside. Those who became violent and did not obey lawful orders were detained. Further details will be shared in due course," Delhi Police said. The police further said that the JNUSU called the protest march from the campus to the Ministry of Education despite being denied permission by the University administration. The police said that around 500 students gathered in the protest and left the main gate of the university, though they were asked to restrict themselves to the campus. "A call for a Long March from JNU to the Ministry of Education was made by the JNU Student Union. The students were informed that such a protest outside the campus was not permitted by the JNU administration and were asked to restrict themselves to the campus. Despite talks and requests not to protest outside, around 400-500 students gathered and held a protest march. At approximately 3:20 PM, they left the main gate and marched outside," the police stated. On the other hand, the Jawaharlal Nehru University Students' Union (JNUSU) condemned the alleged police brutality on the student protestors marching towards the Ministry of Education, demanding the implementation of the Rohith Act and the Vice-Chancellor's resignation. JNUSU further alleged that the injured students have been denied medical assistance.

Three women from Arunachal Pradesh, currently living in Delhi, have filed a complaint accusing their neighbours of racial abuse and humiliation during a dispute that escalated over a minor repair job.

According to an ANI report, citing intelligence sources, the group may be plotting an improvised explosive device (IED) attack on a temple in the Chandni Chowk. The report further added that the outfit is seeking revenge following a blast in an Islamabad mosque on February 6 and may be planning a major attack in India. The report added that prominent temples in the country can be targeted by Lashkar-e-Taiba, suggesting that places of worship remain on the terror group’s radar. The developments come months after a deadly car explosion near Delhi’s Red Fort on November 10 last year, which killed 12 people. The blast happened near Gate No. 1 of the Red Fort Metro Station around 6:52 pm. The explosion resulted in fire in several other vehicles. The intensity of the blast shattered the window panes of vehicles parked some distance away.

Delhi Police arrested eight suspects linked to Pakistan’s ISI and Bangladeshi terror groups for allegedly planning a terror plot. Six were held in Tamil Nadu and two in West Bengal. Investigation is underway.

Delhi Police have issued a clarification over reports of a spike in missing persons cases, saying there was no surge in January 2026. Officials claimed the numbers dipped compared to last year and warned of strict action against those spreading rumours through paid promotions.


India: Delhi Police Issue Clarification Over Missing Persons Report 

The death of a 27-year-old Delhi Police SWAT commando has triggered outrage, with her family accusing her husband and in-laws of sustained violence and dowry harassment, ending in her fatal injuries. Kajal Chaudhary, a Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) commando, died on Tuesday (January 27) after allegedly being subjected to repeated assaults by her husband, Ankur Chaudhary, a clerk with the Ministry of Defence posted in Delhi Cantonment.&nbsp;According to Kajal’s brother, Nikhil, the abuse reached a peak while Kajal was on a phone call with him, during which she finally started speaking about what she was suffering at home. He claimed that Ankur overheard the conversation, forcibly took her phone, and started beating her while Nikhil remained on the line. Recalling the moment, Nikhil said Ankur allegedly told him, “Is call ko recording pe rakh, police evidence me kaam aayega. Main maar raha hoon teri behen ko. Police mera kuch nahi kar payegi” (Put this call on recording, it will be useful as police evidence. I am killing your sister. Police won’t be able to do anything).Nikhil said he then heard Kajal screaming before the call disconnected abruptly.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/india-arab-chamber-of-commerce-aims-to-boost-bilateral-trade-to-500-billion-1769768982457">India-Arab Chamber of Commerce aims to boost bilateral trade to $500 billion</a>&nbsp;The family has also accused Ankur’s relatives of persistently demanding dowry, despite having received valuables at the time of the wedding. Kajal’s father, Rakesh, said the demands never stopped even after substantial gifts were given. “We gave them a Bullet bike, gold jewellery, and cash at the wedding, but they said our son would have got a car (had he married someone else). Later, my daughter even arranged a car, but they didn't stop harassing her. We couldn't even speak freely to her,” he said, as quoted by news agency PTI.&nbsp;Kajal and Ankur were married in November 2023. Her mother alleged that conflicts began almost immediately after the wedding and accused her son-in-law of exploiting her daughter financially and emotionally. “We spent around ₹20 lakh on the marriage and even took loans. He (Ankur) had also taken ₹5 lakh from her... She (Kajal) suffered a lot. I want justice. He is a monster,” she said. The deadly assault reportedly took place on January 22, when Kajal was four months pregnant. According to her brother, Ankur slammed her head against a door frame and struck her with a dumbbell, leaving her with severe head trauma and multiple injuries. “Initially, things were okay, but later he began behaving the same way... She was brain-dead. The doctors said that treatment was not possible…,” Nikhil told news agency ANI.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/videos/china-bans-73-from-football-for-life-ex-coach-among-those-punished-wion-1769769345018/embed">https://www.wionews.com/videos/china-bans-73-from-football-for-life-ex-coach-among-those-punished-wion-1769769345018/embed</a>&nbsp;Kajal succumbed to her injuries days later.

After the anti-encroachment drive in Central Delhi's Turkman Gate turned violent with incidents of stone-pelting against the authorities, Delhi Police has stepped up their investigation. The police have arrested 11 suspects, and have identified 10 social media influencers for allegedly spreading false information about the demolition drive. The authorities said that the anti-encroachment drive near Turkman Gate was done on the basis of order from the court. The drive was happening near the Faiz-e-Elahi mosque in Delhi's Ramlila Maidan area.&nbsp;The total number of those arrested now stands at 11 which includes one juvenile. The six arrested individuals have been identified as Afaan, Adil, Shahnawaz, Hamza, Atharr and Ubed, all residents of the Turkman Gate locality. Earlier, five accused, Mohammad Arib, Kashif, Adnan, Mohammad Kaif and Sameer, were produced before Judicial Magistrate Pooja Suhag, who sent them to judicial custody for a period of 13 days.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/cm-mamata-forcibly-took-away-evidence-says-ed-after-high-drama-during-raid-at-i-pac-moves-hc-1767879453343">‘CM Mamata forcibly took away evidence,’ says ED after high drama during raid at I-PAC; moves HC</a>&nbsp;Police officials have also identified 10 social media influencers allegedly involved for spreading false information about the demolition drive.

Five police officers, including the local station house officer, were injured.&nbsp;It all started late on Tuesday (January 6) night and continued into Wednesday (January 7) during the encroachment drive, which police said was done on the basis of a court order. By Wednesday morning, authorities had demolished a banquet hall, a private diagnostic centre, a room used by Hajj pilgrims, and parts of a road, footpath, and parking area around the mosque.&nbsp;Delhi Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh said a brief survey would soon be done in areas surrounding Jama Masjid to identify encroachments. He added that civic teams were carefully clearing debris at the Turkman Gate site and were looking to complete the process within the next two to three days. Meanwhile, local residents have refuted the police version of events, claiming that while protests were ongoing, police first used tear gas to disperse the crowd, and stone-pelting occurred in response to that.

In its first such instance, the Delhi police have registered a First Information Report (FIR) for driving on the wrong side of the road, making Delhi the first union territory to do so. The criminal case was filed under the provisions of the newly enacted Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS). The case marks a significant step in the direction of enforcing traffic laws in the national capital.&nbsp;The FIR was lodged at the Delhi Cantonment police station on January 3 against Aman, a resident of Uttar Pradesh’s Shahjahanpur, for allegedly driving against the flow of traffic near the Hanuman Mandir red light.&nbsp;The incident was reported at 4.45 PM on Sunday. According to the police, the accused did not have a valid driver's license or Vehicle insurance. The FIR, however, was registered under Section 281 of the BNS, which deals with rash or negligent driving on a public road, endangering human life.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/bomb-threats-to-gujarat-high-court-district-courts-trigger-statewide-security-alert-bomb-threats-security-alert-1767700997046">Bomb threats to Gujarat High Court, district courts trigger statewide security alert</a>&nbsp;The invocation of Section 281 is significant, as the BNS, which replaced the Indian Penal Code, came into effect only on July 1, 2023.

The FIR was registered under the newly enacted Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita's section 281 for rash or negligent driving on a public road, endangering human life.

In its first such instance, the Delhi police have registered a First Information Report (FIR) for driving on the wrong side of the road, making Delhi the first union territory to do so. The criminal case was filed under the provisions of the newly enacted Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS). The case marks a significant step in the direction of enforcing traffic laws in the national capital. The FIR was lodged at the Delhi Cantonment police station on January 3 against Aman, a resident of Uttar Pradesh’s Shahjahanpur, for allegedly driving against the flow of traffic near the Hanuman Mandir red light. The incident was reported at 4.45 PM on Sunday. According to the police, the accused did not have a valid driver's license or Vehicle insurance. The FIR, however, was registered under Section 281 of the BNS, which deals with rash or negligent driving on a public road, endangering human life.

Authorities view the measure as a strategic step to curb hazardous road behaviour, offering stricter legal recourse beyond standard fines. The maiden legal action with criminal provisions for traffic violations reflects a potential shift in Delhi's seriousness in enhancing road safety for citizens.

The arrested individual, who has been identified as 59-year-old Adil Hussaini, also known by several aliases such as Syed Adil Hussain, Mohammad Adil Hussaini, and Nasimuddin, hails from Jamshedpur, Jharkhand. He was arrested by the police in Seemapuri. Police believe Adil, along with his brother Akhtar Hussaini, was involved in sending confidential information to foreign entities and in acquiring multiple Indian passports using fraudulent documents. Authorities seized one authentic passport and two forged copies from his possession. The investigation revealed that Adil had been in possession of a counterfeit passport and had traveled to various countries, including Pakistan. His frequent international travels, particularly to sensitive regions, and the discovery of fake documents, raised suspicions about his activities. According to law enforcement, Adil had visited several foreign countries in recent times, raising concerns over his motives. He is suspected of trying to collect critical national security information. His connections and movements are under extensive investigation, according to a senior police official.

They aim to determine the nature of his foreign travels and any potential links to foreign intelligence networks. Investigations are ongoing to assess whether Adil had external assistance or was working with foreign handlers. Additional Commissioner of Police (Special Cell) Pramod Singh Kushwah said that the accused, Adil, hails from Tata Nagar in Jamshedpur. According to Kushwah, Adil and his brother, Akhtar Hussaini, are suspected of passing sensitive information to foreign entities and obtaining several Indian passports through forged documents. During a search operation, officers recovered one genuine passport and two counterfeit ones from Adil’s possession. He was taken into custody on October 26 under sections 61(2) (criminal conspiracy), 318 (cheating), 338 (forgery of valuable security, will, etc.), and 340 (using forged documents or electronic records as genuine) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), the officer added.

In a major overnight operation, the Delhi and Bihar Police jointly neutralised four of Bihar’s most-wanted criminals linked to the Sigma Gang, one of the most feared criminal networks in the region. The shootout occurred around 2:20am on Bahadur Shah Marg, between Dr. Ambedkar Chowk and Pansali Chowk in Rohini, Delhi, after police teams intercepted a suspicious vehicle. According to senior police officials, the gangsters opened fire when officers tried to stop their car. In retaliation, the police fired back, resulting in a fierce gun battle that lasted several minutes. All four gang members sustained gunshot wounds and were rushed to Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar Hospital, where doctors declared them dead on arrival.<h3>The gangsters and their crime network</h3>The deceased were identified as Ranjan Pathak (25), Bimlesh Mahto (25), Manish Pathak (33), and Aman Thakur (21) — all key members of the Sigma Gang, which has been operating across Bihar’s Sitamarhi, Muzaffarpur, and adjoining districts for several years. Ranjan Pathak, the leader of the gang, had a reward of ₹25,000 on his arrest. Police records reveal he was involved in at least eight major criminal cases, including five high-profile murders and multiple extortion rackets targeting business owners and contractors. The Sigma Gang, active for nearly seven years, was notorious for its organised operations involving extortion, contract killings, and illegal arms trafficking.<h3>Police tracking</h3>Investigators confirmed that Pathak had been openly taunting law enforcement agencies through social media posts and audio clips. In one intercepted recording, he allegedly discussed plans to expand the gang’s influence ahead of the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. Authorities had been monitoring their digital activity for weeks. Using phone tracking and informant inputs, teams from Delhi and Bihar coordinated the operation that culminated in the late-night encounter.<h3>Post-encounter investigation</h3>After the shootout, the entire stretch of Bahadur Shah Marg was sealed off. Forensic experts were called to examine the site, collect bullet shells, and document evidence from the gangsters’ vehicle. The police are now probing the Sigma Gang’s funding sources, hideouts, and possible links with other criminal syndicates in northern India. Authorities also believe that several Sigma Gang associates may still be hiding in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, and raids are being planned to trace and arrest them.

As the probe into allegations of sexual harassment by Delhi-based self-proclaimed guru, Chaitanyananda Saraswati, continues, a leaked WhatsApp conversation has come to light. The chat, allegedly between Saraswati and a female student, shows him inquiring about a potential sex partner for a ‘Dubai sheikh’. While the full context of the reference to the ‘Dubai sheikh’ is unclear, investigators believe it could shed light on his inappropriate behaviour toward his victims.&nbsp;This leak follows closely after Chaitanyananda and his female associates were taken by police to his religious institution for an on-site investigation. The police are working to reconstruct the timeline of events related to the alleged molestation and to collect further evidence. The case against Chaitanyananda has made headlines, drawing attention to serious accusations of sexual misconduct, while also raising questions about the role of his close female aides in the operations of his institution. Police have remained silent on the details of their findings, but it has been reported that Saraswati has been uncooperative, attempting to mislead investigators on multiple occasions.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/russian-president-vladimir-putin-expected-to-visit-india-on-two-day-visit-from-december-5-1759312360160">Russian President Vladimir Putin expected to visit India on two-day visit from December 5</a>&nbsp;During the investigation, several revelations have also emerged. Authorities have found that Saraswati had used his phone to secretly photograph women and staff, engage in inappropriate conversations, and monitor students through a CCTV app. Additionally, his three female aides, who were closely involved with him at the institution, are accused of intimidating the victims and forcing them to erase compromising messages. Saraswati, who had been on the run for several days, was finally arrested in Agra, Uttar Pradesh. Evidence from his phone further points to a disturbing pattern of predatory behaviour, including numerous photographs of students, female staff, and women from outside the institution, as well as screenshots of women’s profile pictures.
