Punjab Police Deport Three Wanted Davinder Bambiha Gang Operatives from MalaysiaPreviousNext

Punjab Police, with central agencies' support, secured the deportation of three alleged Davinder Bambiha gang operatives—Jaspreet Singh alias Jas Behbal, Ajay Singh, and Pawandeep Singh—from Malaysia. The suspects, wanted in Punjab for murder, extortion, explosives, and a planned hand-grenade attack in Ludhiana, were arrested at Delhi's IGI Airport and taken to Punjab for investigation. Authorities also noted links between the gang and Pakistan's ISI. The operation was led by the Overseas Fugitive Tracking and Extradition Cell (OFTEC) after months of intelligence gathering.
