Ajay, an operative linked to foreign-based gangsters, was arrested in a joint operation by the Punjab police and the Anti-Gangster Task Force (AGTF) in the Ghaggar bridge area of Mubarakpur, Dera Bassi. During the operation, authorities recovered a .32-calibre pistol and five live cartridges. Ajay was implicated in supplying weapons to a gangster module that was previously busted on April 18, leading to the arrest of four individuals and the seizure of two foreign-made pistols. Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Harmandeep Singh Hans reported that Ajay had been working under the direction of handlers based abroad for about a year, and his arrest is expected to thwart potential criminal activities in the area. His apprehension was based on a First Information Report (FIR) filed at the Dera Bassi police station under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Arms Act.
