A man wanted in connection with a brazen kidnapping and robbery case was finally captured by the Delhi Police after skillfully evading authorities for nearly a year, an official disclosed on Sunday.

Kisan Moorat, a 45-year-old technician and resident of Baba Haridas Nagar, was at the center of a conspiracy to rob a jeweller by posing as a law enforcement officer to extricate gold from a finance company. The incident, which saw Moorat and his accomplices intercepting and robbing the jeweller under false pretenses, led to his eventual capture following a sustained and strategic police pursuit.

Despite Moorat's initial attempts to present himself as an equally victimized party, his cover was blown when the jeweller grew suspicious. This suspicion eventually led to a police complaint and Moorat's year-long flight, which came to an end through meticulous technical surveillance and a decisive raid in his neighborhood.
