Mukesh was spotted and the police team surrounded him and asked him to surrender. However, he whipped out a pistol and fired two bullets towards the team.
“The team members immediately responded and overpowered and disarmed the accused after firing one bullet in self-defence and to threaten him,” the DCP said, adding that a semi-automatic pistol was recovered from his possession.
The DCP further said that he provided logistics and financial help to the gang members.
“He is very close to Sunny Jaswant and Kalu aka Sunil and they are key members of this syndicate. On December 15, Mukesh, along with his five associates, reached the Hangover Club in the Rajouri Garden area and opened fire. In another two incidents he, along with some of his associates, reached the house of a man in Jahangirpuri area and fired shots.
