Delhi police have located and arrested a suspect who has been on the run for a double murder case in Bharatpur for nine years, according to India Today.
The Delhi Police announced today that they have successfully traced and apprehended a man wanted in connection with a double homicide that took place in Bharatpur, Rajasthan, nearly a decade ago. The suspect, whose identity has not been disclosed, had evaded authorities since the 2015 killings, prompting a prolonged manhunt across state lines.
According to officials, the breakthrough came after intensive investigative work that combined forensic leads, digital tracking, and cooperation with local law enforcement in Rajasthan. The arrest was carried out in Delhi, where the suspect was reportedly residing under an assumed identity.
The police have not yet released details about the next steps in the investigation, including whether the suspect will be extradited to Rajasthan for trial. The case had drawn significant public attention due to the brutal nature of the murders and the prolonged period the accused remained at large.
Authorities reiterated their commitment to pursuing cold cases and urged anyone with further information about the crime to come forward.
The development marks a significant milestone in a case that has lingered in the public eye for nine years, offering a measure of closure to the victims' families.
