On May 2, 2026, police in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, arrested a murder suspect named Anand following a brief encounter near the Behta underpass. The arrest was part of an investigation into a murder case registered on April 29, where an unidentified man was killed in Uttaranchal Vihar Colony. Police used CCTV evidence and informant information to track Anand down. During the encounter, Anand allegedly fired at the officers, resulting in a gunshot wound to his leg. He was subsequently hospitalized. A .315-bore country-made pistol, along with live and empty cartridges, was recovered from him. The police continue to investigate the case and are searching for additional suspects involved in the murder. This incident follows another police encounter in Moradabad, where two suspects were arrested for a separate stabbing case that resulted in two fatalities.
