In a major crackdown against habitual offenders, the Bhopal Police Commissionerate has taken strict action against a notorious criminal, Arshad alias Babba, son of Mohammad Irshad, aged 36 years and resident of House No. 36, in front of Reliance Petrol Pump, Congress Nagar under Tilajamalpura Police Station. The Police Commissioner, under preventive measures to maintain peace and law and order, has issued an order for his externment from the district for a period of one year.

His offenses include assault, gambling, illegal betting, attempt to murder, robbery, dacoity, Arms Act violations, molestation, and violations under the M.P. State Security Act.
The cases span from 2008 to 2024 and are registered under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), Arms Act, Gambling Act, and now even under the new Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Some of the more serious charges include Sections 307 (attempt to murder), 394 (robbery), 399/402 (preparation for dacoity), 354 (molestation), and multiple sections of the Arms Act.
