A 24-year-old man wanted in an armed robbery case was captured on Sunday, marking the end of a five-month manhunt. The suspect, Arbaaz, a resident of northeast Delhi's New Seelampur, was linked to a robbery case filed at Kotwali Police Station in February.

The robbery occurred on February 22, when Raju was accosted by two assailants in an autorickshaw near Shantivan red light. The attackers, wielding blades, robbed him of his mobile phone, Rs 10,000, and other belongings before fleeing.

Earlier, two accomplices, Aman and Rahim, had been arrested, while Arbaaz managed to remain elusive. Police efforts culminated in Arbaaz's arrest near Zero Pusta Road in Seelampur, where he admitted his involvement upon capture. Investigations continue in the case.
