Delhi Police have made significant strides against organized crime with the successful dismantling of a sophisticated international vehicle theft syndicate.

Seven individuals were arrested during a coordinated operation spanning multiple states, leading to the recovery of high-end luxury vehicles and critical tools used in vehicle theft, according to an official report released on Thursday.

Masterminded by Dubai-based Khawaja Shaik Husain, the syndicate specialized in stealing and trafficking high-end vehicles across the country using advanced methods. Authorities have invoked the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) due to the syndicate's extensive criminal history and organized nature.
