Delhi Police apprehended two wanted robbers during an encounter in the Punjabi Bagh area early on a Sunday in December. The incident occurred around 4:30 AM near the Cement Siding area of Madipur when police teams blocked their path following a tip-off.

Both suspects, linked to over 80 criminal cases, including seven armed robberies, are undergoing treatment at a hospital, according to the officials.
