A 39-year-old man wanted in the sensational murder of a doctor in Delhi’s Jangpura earlier this year was shot dead in a midnight encounter by a joint team of Gurugram and Delhi Police near the Lotus Temple early on Tuesday, officials said.
The accused, Bhim Mahabahadur Jora.
The accused, identified as Bhim Mahabahadur Jora, was the alleged mastermind of a gang that infiltrated affluent homes by posing as domestic helps, gained the trust of employers, and later drugged or attacked residents before fleeing with valuables.
Jora had been on the run since May 10, 2024, when he and his associates allegedly strangled Dr. Yogesh Chandra Paul, a 63-year-old physician, during a robbery at his residence in Jangpura, south Delhi. The Delhi Police had announced a ₹50,000 reward for his capture.
