New Delhi, Feb 2 (NationPress) In a remarkable turn of events, notorious gangster Joginder Gyong was deported from the Philippines on Sunday and apprehended at the Delhi IGI airport by the Special Cell of Delhi Police due to his involvement in various criminal activities.
This criminal is sought by Haryana and other states for serious charges including criminal conspiracy and murder, among other heinous offenses.
Gyong was originally detained in the Philippines and transported back to Delhi via Bangkok, where the Special Cell of Delhi Police took custody of him.
Joginder Gyong has been implicated in numerous criminal offenses alongside his brother Surinder Geong. He faces multiple charges, including murder, recorded at the Panipat police station in 2017.
The fugitive gangster has been involved in several criminal cases, including robbery, murder, attempt to murder, and extortion, with additional charges of kidnapping for ransom.
His brother was killed in a shootout with the Haryana Police, which led him to orchestrate a murder in retaliation for his brother's death.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) issued a Red Notice against him through Interpol, resulting in his capture and return to India.
According to an official statement, “The CBI had secured a Red Notice against Joginder Gyong from Interpol on October 25, 2024, which was disseminated to law enforcement agencies worldwide to facilitate his apprehension.”
The Delhi Police confirmed that Gyong was arrested by the Philippines Bureau of Immigration (PBI) in Bacolod City, following India's extradition request.
This extradition stands as a significant achievement for the investigative agency as the criminal was detained by authorities in the Philippines and returned to India.
As per official data, over 100 wanted criminals have been extradited to India through Interpol cooperation since 2021.
