A 21-year-old man, carrying a country-made pistol inside his luggage, was caught by the personnel of Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) at a Metro Station in the national capital on Wednesday, an official said.
The said passenger was identified as Nishant Upadhayay, a resident of Agra in Uttar Pradesh. The official said the incident took place around 10 a.m. when the CISF personnel were screening people's baggage through an X-BIS machine at Hazrat Nizamuddin metro station. "A CISF Constable noticed a suspicious image inside the bag of a passenger. Immediately, he stopped the conveyor belt of the X-BIS machine as well as the passenger," the official said, adding that the bag was then checked physically in the presence of the passenger. "On physical checking of the bag, a Desi Katta (country made pistol) was detected from the bag. Immediately, the matter was informed to the senior officers of CISF, Station Controller & DMRP," the official said. On questioning, the said passenger did not reply satisfactorily and was later handed over to the Delhi Police along with the seized country made pistol. --IANS uj/skp/ ( 194 Words) 2022-03-23-20:48:06 (IANS)
