Delhi Police Arrest 15-Year Runaway in 2011 Murder Case
A man named Naushad was caught by Delhi Police after running away for 15 years.
He was part of a group that robbed and killed a commission agent named Atul Jain in 2011.
Jain was shot while carrying a lot of money.
The police had already caught the other three people in the group.
Naushad had been hiding and selling second‑hand clothes to avoid being caught.
The police finally found him near a flyover in Delhi and arrested him.
This arrest helps finish the case that started in 2011.
The police had a reward for finding him.
The case shows how the police can track someone even after many years.
Now Naushad will face trial for the crime.
Delhi Police arrested Naushad, 37, after 15 years on the run.
He was linked to the 2011 robbery‑murder of commission agent Atul Jain in east Delhi.
Jain was shot while carrying Rs 8.5 lakh and was killed by gunfire.
Four other suspects—Arshad, Bhura alias Mustkeen, Nadeem alias Nadda, and Zaki Anwar—were already convicted.
Naushad had been evading arrest by changing hideouts and selling second‑hand clothes.
