The Amritsar police force intensified its crackdown on organized crime, culminating in the seizure of two shooters accused of firing at a shopkeeper. The suspects, identified as Sajan and Jashan Preet, are believed to have connections with international gang factions. Jashan Preet previously faced a commercial quantity offence under the NDPS Act in 2024, when he was a minor. While serving his sentence, he allegedly maintained contacts that facilitated his entry into a larger criminal network.
Both men have now been placed in remand, where investigators will probe deeper into their associations with broader criminal syndicates.
