In a significant breakthrough, the Delhi Police have apprehended Bazid Khan, a 24-year-old proclaimed offender, wanted in a drug-related case. Khan was captured in Gujarat after six months of evading arrest, linked to a narcotics case registered under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act.
According to police, Khan's name surfaced during the interrogation of another accused, Imran Khan alias Sahil, who was arrested with narcotics in 2022. Shahjahanpur resident Bazid allegedly supplied the contraband that led to his notoriety in the crime branch records.
