Jaggu Bhagwanpuria linked to Punjab gang war, arrested in Moldova
India
Amritpal Singh, better known as Amrit Dalam and linked to the Jaggu Bhagwanpuria gang, was detained at the Moldova border.
He's been wanted for several major crimes in Punjab and had managed to dodge authorities abroad for quite a while, even after an Interpol red notice went out.
Legal steps are under way to bring Singh back to India
Punjab's top cop, Gaurav Yadav, called Singh's detention a big milestone, crediting it to steady international cooperation and nonstop tracking by police teams.
Right now, legal steps are under way to bring Singh back to India for trial.
The Punjab Police say they're still chasing 61 other fugitive gangsters hiding overseas, so this may just be the start.
