Delhi Police Arrests Man After 24 Years for 2002 Murder in South DelhiPreviousNext

Delhi Police arrested Firoj alias Khaja, a 48-year-old man wanted for the 2002 murder of Kalaam Ansari, whose head was crushed with stones in a forest near Tughlaqabad Fort. The accused had evaded capture for nearly 24 years and was found working as a tailor in Manesar, Gurugram. The investigation revealed a family dispute linked to Firoj's brother's suicide, which motivated the killing. Police conducted multiple raids before apprehending him.
