Washington: The news of gangster Himanshu Bhau, who is included in the most wanted list of Indian security agencies, has been arrested in America. It is being said that the American investigating agency FBI has arrested him. Himanshu Bhau has many cases registered against him in India related to serious crimes like murder, extortion and kidnapping. Security agencies have been alert for a long time about the activities of his criminal network in Delhi-NCR, Haryana and Punjab. Earlier, information about his hiding in Portugal had come to light, but now after the news of his arrest in America, Indian agencies are eyeing his extradition. If brought to India, he may have to face legal action in the cases registered here.
Himanshu Bhau is said to be a resident of Ritoli village in Rohtak district of Haryana. He is also known as Himanshu Ritoli. According to reports, he entered the world of crime in his teenage years. Several criminal cases are said to be registered against him in Haryana, Delhi and Punjab.
With time, his name became associated with the network of gangsters active in Delhi-NCR and surrounding states. His gang has been accused of being involved in incidents like murder, extortion and firing. However, his role and the legal status of the allegations may vary in each case.
According to available reports, Himanshu Bhau was once lodged in a juvenile home and had absconded from there. It was revealed that other minors had also absconded with him. After this, news of expansion of his criminal network kept coming to light.
It is said that after increasing his activities in Haryana, he made contacts till Delhi and surrounding areas. In the year 2020, the case of absconding from Bostal Jail of Hisar has also been linked to his name. However, independent verification of the detailed official records related to these events is necessary.
Himanshu Bhau's name has been linked with networks linked to Neeraj Bawana and Bambiha gang. On the other hand, reports also mention the rivalry between his gang and networks linked to Lawrence Bishnoi and Goldie Brar.
Such rivalry between gangs often forms part of investigations into criminal incidents and threats. However, final conclusions about an individual's or gang's ties must be drawn based on official investigations and facts revealed in court.
There have been reports of Himanshu Bhau's name surfacing during the investigation of many criminal incidents in Haryana. According to the report, the claim of taking responsibility for three murders that took place within 24 hours in the year 2022 and the firing outside the house of actor Elvish Yadav were also linked to him.
Apart from this, his name has also been said to have cropped up in cases related to extortion demand, housebreaking and firing and murder. It is important to keep in mind the distinction between allegations, investigations and court decisions in these cases. Being named in a case does not automatically mean conviction.
After the news of his arrest in America, now the most important question is when and under what process he will be brought to India. If Indian agencies want to extradite him, they will have to follow the relevant legal and diplomatic procedures.
The extradition decision is based on the laws of the respective countries, available documents and applicable treaties. After the arrest, further processing can be taken up on the basis of information about the cases registered in India and necessary legal documents.
At present, it would not be appropriate to make any definite claims without official confirmation regarding the date of his extradition to India or the status of the extradition process. If extradition takes place, Indian agencies can pursue enquiries and legal action in cases related to him.
