Delhi Police Tightens Net: Ninth Arrest Made in High-Profile Attack on CM's Residence and BJP Leader's Home

In a significant development in the ongoing investigation into the alleged attack on the Delhi Chief Minister’s residence and the home of BJP leader Rekha Gupta, Delhi Police have apprehended another suspect, bringing the total number of arrests to nine. The latest individual taken into custody has been identified as Aman Deep, signaling the police's relentless pursuit of all those involved in the high-profile incident.

The events in question unfolded on March 30, a day marked by heightened tension.

Protesters had gathered, leading to an alleged stone-pelting incident near the Chief Minister’s residence. Simultaneously, BJP leader Rekha Gupta also reported an attack on her house, prompting a formal complaint that initiated the police action.

Following Rekha Gupta's complaint, an FIR was promptly registered at the Civil Lines police station.

The case encompasses a range of serious charges under various sections of the Indian Penal Code, including 147 (rioting), 148 (rioting, armed with deadly weapon), 149 (unlawful assembly guilty of offence committed), 186 (obstructing public servant in discharge of public functions), 332 (voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty), 353 (assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty), 427 (mischief causing damage to the amount of fifty rupees), 435 (mischief by fire or explosive substance with intent to cause damage), and 120B (criminal conspiracy).

These sections underscore the gravity with which the authorities are treating the incident.

Prior to Aman Deep's arrest, eight other individuals had been apprehended in connection with the case. Among them were reportedly some members of the BJP Yuva Morcha. While these eight suspects were subsequently released on bail, the ongoing arrests indicate that the investigation is far from over and the police are committed to thoroughly exploring all angles and bringing every accused to justice.

The protest on March 30 was reportedly fueled by the Chief Minister’s alleged remarks concerning the controversial film ‘The Kashmir Files.’ The incident had sparked considerable political debate and raised concerns about public order and the safety of public figures' residences.

With Aman Deep's arrest, the police continue to piece together the events of that day, moving closer to a comprehensive understanding and resolution of the case.
