An absconding gangster of the notorious Neeraj Bawana- Naveen Bali gang has been arrested from Naraina in south west Delhi, police said on Wednesday.

“A single-shot pistol was seized from his possession. When confronted by police, he had whipped out the pistol, and aimed at the cops. He, however, was overpowered by the police personnel,” a police official said.
The police received information about the accused’s arrival near the bus depot at Pandav Nagar Colony, Naraina, on Monday to meet an associate. A trap was laid and he was arrested.
According to police, Sahil is an active member of the Neeraj Bawana-Naveen Bali gang, and provides logistics and financial help to the members. He is also very close to Jahangirpuri’s Mukesh alias Bhola, who is a key member of this syndicate.
In December last year, Sahil along with his six others fired gunshots at a club in Rajouri Garden. Two of the culprits had been arrested in the case, while others, including him, were on the run, police added.
