Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar on Tuesday announced an aggressive campaign to dismantle the criminal 'ecosystem' in the city, promising that criminals will face intensified scrutiny under his leadership.

Kumar emphasized a zero-tolerance approach, highlighting ongoing efforts to target organized criminals and their supporters. He warned that those who glorify or financially back criminal elements will face serious consequences.

The commissioner called for transparency from fugitive gangster Nilesh Ghaywal, who has been evading authorities by questionable means. Legal procedures are underway to ensure his capture and return to India, with steps including an Interpol 'blue corner' notice to track his whereabouts.
