In a significant breakthrough against organised crime, Delhi Police have completed the main investigation and filed the main charge-sheet against an organised crime syndicate allegedly headed by Nasir Hafiz Khan alias Irani alias Sameer, officials said on Sunday.

The charge-sheet was filed by the Central District Police under Sections 3 & 4 of the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA), 1999, in FIR No. 202/2026, DBG Road Police Station.

The action originated from the investigation of FIR dated October 23, 2025, registered at DBG Road Police Station in connection with a robbery of approximately Rs 18.84 lakh.

According to the officials, during scrutiny of the criminal activities and antecedents of the accused persons, it was found that Nasir was operating an organised crime syndicate known as the Irani Gang, along with his associates, and was involved in a series of organised criminal activities, including robbery, cheating and other serious offences across different States for pecuniary gain and undue advantage.

The investigation revealed that the syndicate was allegedly operating in a coordinated manner, with different members performing specific roles in the execution of criminal activities, arranging vehicles and logistics, handling the proceeds of crime, and facilitating the disposal of stolen jewellery and other valuables.

Officials said that Nasir, the alleged head of the Irani Gang, has approximately 42 previous criminal involvements across Delhi, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and other States, as per the criminal records examined in the original proposal.

“The accused and his associates were found involved in multiple cases of robbery and cheating, including cases in which charge-sheets had been filed and cognisance taken by competent courts,” the police said.

On the basis of detailed scrutiny of criminal records, previous charge-sheets, judicial proceedings and the continuing unlawful activities of the syndicate, police said that an approval under Section 23(1)(a) of MCOCA was obtained from the competent authority, following which an FIR was registered at PS DBG Road under MCOCA on June 12 this year.

Officials stated that a Special Investigation Team (SIT), under the overall supervision of ACP Saurabh A. Narendra, and the PS DBG Road SHO conducted an extensive investigation into the activities, financial transactions, assets and criminal network of the syndicate.

During the investigation, apart from Nasir, two principal accused persons were arrested and charge-sheeted. The accused were identified as Ali Chunna alias Raja, an active associate of the syndicate who was arrested on August 10 this year and has been previously involved in 10 criminal cases; and Akbar Ali alias Kabir, an active associate of the syndicate who was arrested on August 22 and has been previously involved in 22 cases.

“The investigation involved examination of numerous criminal cases registered across different States, detailed scrutiny of bank accounts and financial transactions, verification of vehicle ownership and loan documents, examination of property-related records, recording of witness statements and collection of documentary and material evidence,” officials said.

As part of the financial investigation, a detailed analysis of bank accounts revealed substantial suspicious cash deposits, online transfers, UPI transactions and ATM withdrawals.

The investigation revealed that proceeds suspected to have been generated through criminal activities were allegedly routed through multiple bank accounts, including accounts of associates and family members, and subsequently utilised for vehicle purchases, loan instalments and other financial transactions.

The financial trail, bank statements and supporting documents have been incorporated into the charge-sheet, officials said.

The investigation further indicates that jewellery allegedly obtained in incidents in different States was brought into the Delhi network and disposed of through local jewellery channels.

The investigation established the alleged use of vehicles purchased and financed through funds suspected to be generated from organised criminal activities. It was also revealed that certain vehicles were allegedly financed by members of the syndicate and subsequently used by other associates for their criminal activities.

Documents relating to properties situated in Delhi, Greater Noida and other places were examined. A rent agreement and its supporting identity documents were scrutinised, which revealed the alleged use of false identity particulars by certain associates, officials said.

They further stated that statements of relevant witnesses and documentary evidence concerning the properties and transactions were collected and incorporated into the charge-sheet.

The investigation also included recording of confessional statements of accused Nasir and Ali Chunna under Section 18 of MCOCA, in accordance with the prescribed legal procedure.

These statements, along with independent witness statements, bank records, vehicle documents, property records, previous charge-sheets and other material evidence, have been placed before the competent court, officials said.

After completion of the main investigation, a comprehensive main charge-sheet under Section 193 BNSS has been filed before a Special Exclusive Court-12 (MCOCA) at the Rouse Avenue Courts against the three accused.

All three accused persons are presently in judicial custody.

“Further investigation is continuing to identify, trace and apprehend the remaining associates of the syndicate, examine additional financial transactions and trace further properties and proceeds suspected to have been generated through organised criminal activities. A supplementary charge-sheet will be filed upon completion of further investigation,” the police said.

Three members of a family, including a five-month-old child, were killed when a speeding pickup truck collided with their motorcycle in Madhya Pradesh’s Shajapur district, police said on Saturday.

The deceased have been identified as Ajit Panwar, his wife Pooja Panwar and their five-month-old son Shivanshu. They were residents of Indra Colony in Ashta town of neighbouring Sehore district.

The accident occurred in the Salsalai police station area when the family was travelling from Bolai village towards Ayyapur for temple darshan.

According to preliminary investigation, a stray dog suddenly came in front of their motorcycle. Ajit, who was riding the two-wheeler, tried to avoid hitting the animal but lost control of the motorcycle, which swerved into the path of a pickup truck approaching from the opposite direction. The pickup truck hit the motorcycle with considerable force, leaving all three family members critically injured. The motorcycle was badly damaged in the collision. The injured were rushed to a nearby hospital, where doctors declared all three dead.

The family had left home on Saturday to visit a temple and offer prayers to mark the completion of five months of their son Shivanshu. However, they met with the fatal accident before reaching their destination.

“The family was going for temple darshan with their child when a stray dog suddenly came in front of their motorcycle. The rider tried to save the animal but lost control and collided with a pickup coming from the opposite direction,” a police official said.

The pickup driver fled the scene after the accident. Police seized both vehicles and registered a case against the unidentified driver for rash and negligent driving.

“Efforts are underway to trace the absconding driver with the help of CCTV footage and eyewitness accounts. The bodies have been sent for post-mortem examination, and further investigation is underway,” the official added.

A Mumbai court on Saturday sent Amar, the 12th accused arrested from Haryana’s Sonipat in connection with the firing incident on Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff, to police custody till November 6.

On Thursday, a special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) court had sent 11 other accused arrested in connection with the firing on Shroff’s car to police custody till November 6.

The latest accused was arrested from Rohna village in Sonipat.

Earlier in the day, the Mumbai Police had produced Amar before a court, which sent him to police custody until November 6.

According to officials, Amar is accused of having transferred money, allegedly used in the commission of the crime, online. The funds were reportedly used for various expenses, including the purchase of a motorcycle and booking hotel rooms linked to the case.

According to the preliminary investigation, Amar is a friend and neighbour of Kunal, who was arrested earlier in the case. Police investigations have revealed that Kunal allegedly transferred Rs 40,000 to Amar’s bank account.

Amar subsequently transferred Rs 12,000 to Radha’s bank account, another accused arrested earlier, allegedly on Kunal’s instructions.

The Mumbai Police are investigating these financial transactions to establish the purpose of the transfers and determine the connections between the accused. The money trail is being examined as part of the wider investigation into the firing incident.

Amar, who studied up to Class 10, works at a supplements shop. His parents reportedly earn their livelihood through daily-wage labour.

Meanwhile, Amar’s family has claimed that he is innocent and alleged that he has been falsely implicated in the case.

With nine of the 12 arrested accused reportedly belonging to Sonipat, the district has emerged as a key focus of the Mumbai Police investigation.

The police are examining the financial dealings and personal connections among the accused to establish the sequence of events and identify the roles played by individual suspects.
