Gurugram Police Detain Trio Over Alleged Delhi Terror Scheme, Confiscate Imported Handguns

Arrests and confiscated weapons

The Crime Branch unit in Farukhnagar, Gurugram, captured three youths suspected of orchestrating a large‑scale terror‑style plot in Delhi intended to sow fear. During the operation, officers seized two imported pistols together with five cartridges.

The individuals named in the case are:

• Abhay (aka Maulad), 20 – resident of Kheda Jhajhrola.
• Jatin (aka Jony), 29 – hails from Patel Nagar, Sonipat.
• Sagar, also from Kheda Jhajhrola.

All three have been charged under the Arms Act at the Sector‑10 police station.

Sequence of the arrests

Separate teams cornered each suspect at different sites. Abhay was apprehended near the Garhi flyover on the New Pataudi‑Gurugram Road, Jatin was nabbed in Farukhnagar, and Sagar was stopped close to the KMP in the same vicinity. While trying to flee, Sagar leapt from a flyover, broke his leg and was taken to a medical facility for treatment. Further legal steps will follow his recovery.

Investigation into the source of the firearms

Interrogations indicated that Abhay received the pistols from Jatin. Detectives are now tracing how Jatin procured the weapons, with early leads pointing to the involvement of additional intermediaries.

Police suspect the trio maintained contact with contacts overseas, possibly receiving instructions for illegal money recovery and extortion. The alleged scheme aimed at a major criminal act in Delhi to create panic, though the exact targets are still being examined.

Authorities probing a larger network

Investigators are mapping the full supply chain that delivered the guns to the suspects, analysing communication logs and hunting for other participants in the conspiracy.

Records show Jatin already faces a case in Delhi under the Excise Act, prompting officials to review his prior activities as part of the current probe.

ACP Naveen Sharma stressed that the enquiry is ongoing, focusing on the firearms’ origin, the broader network, and any further criminal connections of the arrested men. Updates will follow as new evidence emerges.
