The Central Crime Branch (CCB) sleuths have arrested two wanted alleged offenders, a rowdy-sheeter from Kengeri and a robbery accused from Wilson Garden, who had been absconding after failing to appear before courts despite non-bailable warrants (NBWs) being issued against them.

The arrests were made by the CCB’s Organised Crime Wing (West) on October 29. According to the CCB, Prajwal H.R., 24, a ‘B’ category rowdy-sheeter of Kengeri police station, is involved in four criminal cases registered at Kengeri and R.R. Nagar police stations. The accused had allegedly been absconding after failing to appear before the court in connection with an attempted murder case registered at Kengeri police station.

In another incident, the CCB arrested Mohammed Moinuddin, 25, a history-sheeter of Wilson Garden police station. He was allegedly involved in three robbery cases registered at Wilson Garden and S.R. Nagar police stations. He had been absconding and failed to appear before the court in connection with a robbery case registered at the Wilson Garden police station.

The CCB personnel traced and apprehended both accused and handed them over to the respective police stations for further legal action. The police said reports had also been submitted for initiating action against them under Section 269 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, which deals with failure by a person released on bail or bond to appear in court.
