In a significant breakthrough, Punjab Police nabbed the alleged shooter involved in the high-profile murder of kabaddi promoter Kanwar Digvijay Singh, known as Rana Balachauria. Official reports reveal that Aditya, also called Makhan, was captured in Agartala, Tripura, during an operation termed 'Shadow Hunt.'

The Anti-Gangster Task Force (AGTF) coordinated with central and local Tripura authorities to arrest the elusive suspect. Aditya, hailing from Amritsar, has a considerable criminal history, and his arrest follows the prior apprehension of his accomplices. These arrests bring to a close the case that started with the tragic shooting at a Mohali tournament in December last year.

The Punjab DGP expressed that this operation underlines their commitment to justice and safety, as the apprehension concludes the efforts to detain all individuals associated with the conspiracy and execution of the crime. Collaborative intelligence and strategic action were central to bringing the last piece of this case to justice.
