He is wanted in three extortion cases. Police say Kumar and his associate, Ajay, who is still at large in Dubai, used foreign phone numbers to avoid detection.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey made extortion calls to businessmen in Delhi and the NCR from Malaysia and Dubai. The gang demanded crores of rupees from their targets, including an NRI businessman based in Dubai. To exert pressure, the gang even arranged for their associates to fire shots at the residence of the NRI&#8217;s relative in Ghaziabad,\u201d said Additional Commissioner of Police Sanjay Bhatia.<\/p>\n<p>The gang also fired shots at relatives&#8217; homes to pressure victims into paying. \u201cThe accused, a resident of Jhajjar, Haryana, is wanted in three extortion cases registered at different police stations,\u201d stated Special Commissioner of Police (Crime) Devesh Shrivasta. They used fake SIM cards and mobile phones.<\/p>\n<p>Karala, currently in Mandoli Jail for the murder of singer Harshita Dahiya, took control of the gang after the death of Jitender Mann, alias Gogi, in 2021. He continues to run the extortion racket from jail, targeting various businesses and recruiting new members. Police are searching for Ajay and other gang members, as well as investigating the source of the fake SIM cards.<\/p>\n<p><!--\/include_growfast.cms?pagename=article&skipcss=1potime:1--><\/p>\n<style><![CDATA[\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand p, #stock_pro.onDemand p{font-size: 14px;line-height: 1.28;}\n    \t    .onDemand .live_stock{left:17px;padding:1px 3px 1px 5px;font-size:12px;font-weight:600;line-height:18px;top:9px}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{margin:0 auto 0;}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{color: #024d99;margin-top:10px;}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .crypto .live_stock .lb-icon{8px 6px 5px 3px !important}\n    \t    #sr_widget.crypto.onDemand a.text{border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding-bottom:5px;display:block;width:100%}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc .text p, #stock_pro.onDemand .sr_desc .text p{font-size:12px;font-weight:400;}\n    \t]]><\/style>\n<p><!--\/article_liveblog.cms?msid=105115637&pos=botpotime:1--><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/india\/delhi-gangsters-flying-abroad-just-to-make-ransom-calls-from-international-numbers-to-throw-cops-off-scent\/articleshow\/117226018.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi police have arrested a member of a gang making extortion calls from Dubai and Malaysia.
