In the wake of shocking revelations surrounding the Nadir Shah murder case in Greater Kailash, South Delhi, the reputation of Delhi Police appears to be tarnished. Sources indicate that some police personnel were present at the scene during the crime. CCTV footage obtained by the police reportedly shows their presence. Furthermore, there are links to a businessman from Shahdara, who is allegedly a financier for the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
On the night of 12 September, around 10:45 PM, Nadir Shah was shot dead in Greater Kailash Part 1. According to sources, Nadir Shah, once involved in petty crimes, had become a millionaire over the past few years. He was reportedly working for a police officer known as ‘Pahlwan’ within Delhi Police. Gradually, Nadir started acting as an informant for the police, conducting raids and settling cases.
Eventually, he moved to Dubai and established a business there. During this time, he came into contact with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, assisting them in extorting local businessmen, referred to as ‘Asamis’. It is believed that Nadir got involved in a dispute with the Bishnoi gang over an extortion deal, which led to his murder.
According to police sources, Nadir’s mother is serving a life sentence in Gujarat in an NDPS (Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances) case. Nadir engaged in drug and gambling rackets and smuggled gold from Dubai. He had reportedly invested money on behalf of several police officers.
On the night of the murder, some police officers were allegedly present at the scene, but fled when the shooting started. Their identities are currently being verified.
Reports suggest that the police have arrested several suspects connected to the case. Special Police Commissioner RP Upadhyay stated that six individuals have been arrested, and further investigations are ongoing, which will reveal more details in the coming days.
Sources reveal that the role of a businessman from Shahdara is also under scrutiny. His son runs a betting business in Dubai, and the businessman himself is reportedly a financier for the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Just days before the murder, the businessman had filed a complaint against the Bishnoi gang for extortion. Experts believe this was a strategic move to mislead the investigation and protect himself during the police probe.
This murder has severely damaged the credibility of Delhi Police. The fact that gangsters operating from abroad are able to intimidate and extort businessmen in the nation’s capital, and even carry out murders in broad daylight, has created an atmosphere of insecurity among the business community. It is particularly alarming that Delhi Police has failed to take decisive action in such cases, further tarnishing their image.
