In past few years, several cases were
reported in Delhi in which the gang of Manoj @ Vicky @ Morkheri (31 yrs) s/o
Nahar Singh r/o Village Morkheri, PS Sampla, District Rohtak, Haryana and his
associates were actively involved in committing various offences viz. murder,
kidnapping for ransom, extortion etc. where violence, intimidation and other
unlawful means were used with the sole objective of gaining pecuniary benefits
or undue economic or other advantages. This syndicate operates on the principle
of fear psychosis and have made their presence felt in Delhi and Haryana which
is evident from various cases registered against this crime syndicate under
sections 364 A, 302, 384 IPC etc.
The kingpin of this syndicate namely
Manoj @ Morkheri started his crime career, when he managed to successfully plan
and execute the escape of notorious gangster Ramdhan @ Leela from the custody
of Haryana Police in the month of March-2003, while Leela was being escorted to
Court from Rohtak Jail. Immediately thereafter, Manoj @ Morkheri and his
associates committed a sensational cold blooded murder of a jail warden namely
Vijay Gulati near Hisar jail on 07.04.2003. He was arrested in May 2003 but he
alongwith his associates escaped from Behror jail, Rajasthan in August 2003 by
assaulting the guards/sentries positioned at the gate of the jail.
The
modus operandi of this crime syndicate is that, prior to committing crime, they
plan every detail of the operation very meticulously. The role to be played by each
gang member was planned and defined in advance and executed accordingly.
In
March 2011, Manoj @ Morkheri alongwith his associates Anil @ Ganja, Rajesh
Bharti, Sandeep Chhikara, Jitender Dixit @ Bantu, Arun @ Kala @ Lambu, Prevesh
Grewal and Sumit @ Sam committed a sensational kidnapping of a boy from Dhaula
Kuan and took a ransom of Rs. 35 lacs within hours of kidnapping.
In
March 2011 itself, this crime syndicate kidnapped a lecturer in PDM College,
Bahadurgarh and took a ransom of Rs. 20 lacs.
In
November 2011, Manoj @ Morkheri and his associates Anil @ Ganja, Dheerpal,
Ishwar @ Kala @ Ravi @ Pandit, Jagdeep @ Sonu and Rohit @ Rahul kidnapped one
college student of Maharaja Agrasen College, Rohini, Delhi and demanded Rs. 5
crore from the father of the victim as ransom for his release. They released
the victim after taking 1.1 crore rupees as ransom amount.
In
January 2013, this crime syndicate brutally murdered retired Inspector Ram
Kishan Dahiya with gunshot injuries. This murder was in retaliation to police
encounter in 2005 in Rohtak, Haryana in which Sandeep (cousin of Manoj @
Morkheri) had died and Inspector Ram Kishan Dahiya was heading the raiding
team. He was aware that attacking a serving police officer could be very risky.
Thus he waited till the Inspector retired in January, 2013.
In
addition to above mentioned cases, numerous other cases of murder, attempt to
murder, robbery, extortion etc were committed by the members of this crime
syndicate.
Despite the fact that some of the
members of this crime syndicate are in different jails, there are grounds to
believe that this syndicate is still running their illegal activities from
jail. The present procedural and adjudication system is somehow unable to
control the menace of such syndicates which create terror among general public.
Therefore, to control the activities of this syndicate, stringent provisions of
law have been invoked. Accordingly, a case vide FIR No. 55/16 u/s 3/4 MCOC Act,
PS Crime Branch, Delhi has been registered against this crime syndicate.
Further, the kingpin Manoj @ Morkheri
and his most loyal associates namely Anil @ Ganja, Ishwar @ Pandit &
Dhirpal @ Deepak, who are among the top hierarchy of this syndicate, have been
arrested in this case. Further efforts are being made to arrest remaining 08
other associates of Manoj @ Morkheri against whom MCOCA has been invoked.
