In a dramatic early morning encounter near Sanjay Van in southwest Delhi, police engaged in a shootout with two men, resulting in the arrest of a wanted criminal. According to authorities, the incident unfolded around 6:15 am when officers, acting on a tip-off, attempted to intercept the suspects near Aruna Asaf Ali Road.

As police approached, the men allegedly opened fire, prompting a swift response. Deputy Commissioner of Police (Southwest) Amit Goel reported a short-lived exchange of gunfire that left one of the suspects, Arman, 26, with a gunshot injury to the leg. His associate, 24-year-old Basheer, was apprehended at the scene, where officers found an illegal firearm and live ammunition.

Legal proceedings have commenced, with investigations ongoing into the origins of the weapons and other potential accomplices.
