Sunday, 26 June 2022 | Staff Reporter | New Delhi

Delhi Police has arrested three men in their early twenties while some minor boys were counselled after they created ruckus in the communally sensitive Jahangirpuri area in the national Capital. Police said that some of them were allegedly drunk at the time of the incident on Friday night.

Three men arrested have been identified as Narender (24), Mohit (21) and Shankar (22), all residents of K-block in Jahangirpuri area.

According to Usha Rangnani, the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), northwest district, on July 24 at about 9.00 PM, a police control room (PCR) call was received at the police station that some boys are roaming in K block at Jahangirpuri and damaging the vehicles.

“Police immediately reached at the spot and on local enquiry it was revealed that some boys (most of them were minor boys), allegedly drunk, were roaming in K Block.

They were shouting and hurling abuses at each other, and while passing through the lane, they pulled down two to three old two wheelers,” said the DCP.

“However, no one was injured and no damage was caused to any property. There was no stone pelting and there was no communal angle involved,” said the DCP.

“Preventive action against 3 of them was taken by arresting them under section 107/151 Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) while others being minor were counselled appropriately,” she added.

On April 16, clashes had broken out between two communities during the procession in Jahangirpuri in the capital, leaving eight police personnel and a local injured.
