The complainant, 74-year-old Taresh Basiwala (a resident of Roop Nagar, Delhi), reported that around 3:00 AM on the night of August 6–7, 2026, he woke up to use the restroom. Finding no water in the tank, he opened the main glass door to switch on the water pump. At that moment, four armed individuals entered the main building and held the complainant and his wife, Archana, hostage. They ransacked the house and looted cash... escaping with ₹10 lakh and gold and silver jewelry. They also took away the DVR connected to the home's CCTV cameras. Subsequently, a case was registered at the Roop Nagar Police Station (FIR No. 375/2026, dated 09/06/2026) under Sections 309(4), 309(6), 311, and 3(5) of the BNS, and an investigation was initiated.

Given the gravity and audacity of the crime, a joint team was constituted. The first team was formed under the supervision of Shri Vishesh Dhattarwal and led by Inspector Rohit Saraswat (I/C Special Staff)*; it comprised *SI Ashok, SI Vipin, ASI Harphool, ASI Jagom, HC Akash, HC Devendra, W/HC Renu, Ct Sachin, Ct Vicky, Ct Kuldeep, Ct Qasim, Ct Abhishek, and Ct Mohit Sheoran*. The second team was formed under the supervision of *Shri Rajendra Prasad (ACP/Civil Lines) and led by *Inspector Ramesh Chandra (SHO/Roop Nagar)*; it comprised *SI Raju Singh, HC Naveen, Ct Gautam Bhati, and Ct Abhishek Dahiya*.

During the investigation, CCTV footage from the vicinity of the crime scene was meticulously analyzed. It was revealed that three suspects had fled on two motorcycles, while two other suspects had escaped on a scooter. Tracing the accused's probable route via CCTV footage, the police team reached Basai Darapur, Delhi. The team identified the room where all the accused had been staying. With the aid of manual intelligence and technical surveillance, the three suspects were identified as follows: (1) Ram Khiladi, a resident of Village Barauta, Mathura, UP; (2) Deepak, a resident of Ulau Lewar, Firozabad, UP; and (3) Bhim alias Cheta, a resident of Village Barauta, Mathura, UP. A check of their criminal history revealed that the accused Ram Khiladi was involved in five cases of dacoity, murder, and theft, while the accused Deepak was implicated in 15 cases—including dacoity with murder, attempted murder, and housebreaking—registered at various police stations in Uttar Pradesh. Using technical surveillance to track their locations, raids were conducted in Mathura, Firozabad, Mainpuri, and Aligarh (UP), but all the accused were found to have absconded. However, on the morning of August 9, 2026, a police team from the Special Staff intercepted the accused, Ram Khiladi, near the Madhavan Toll Plaza in Mathura. While being intercepted, Ram Khiladi opened fire at the police team. In retaliation, the police team fired two rounds at him—likely hitting him in the leg—but he managed to escape the scene by taking advantage of the darkness and heavy traffic. Based on a complaint filed by the police team, a separate case was registered against Ram Khiladi at the Farah police station in Mathura (UP).


Additionally, details regarding the scooter identified in the CCTV footage were analyzed; its model and registration number series were established. Information regarding mobile numbers registered with the Delhi Police Traffic Unit was obtained. After an in-depth analysis of numbers linked to the identified scooter, one number was found to be in contact with the accused, Ram Khiladi. The scooter was found to be registered in the name of Navratan. Technical analysis revealed that Navratan's mobile number was also in contact with Saroj, the complainant's former domestic help. Subsequently, Saroj was apprehended late in the evening on August 20, 2026. During interrogation, she revealed that she had shared information about the complainant's assets and family with her son, Manoj (alias Lala). Later, Manoj,
