Delhi Police Commissioner had declared a cash reward of Rs one lakh for cracking of this case.
The accused identified as Mohd Danish Jamal alias Sameer and his aide Deepak Sirohi alias Bunty were arrested by the Special Cell of Delhi Police on Tuesday.
"We had got a tip off that Jamal, who is planning to execute a heinous crime, will be coming to meet an associate near the Hanuman temple, behind GB Road. It was also learnt that one Deepak, an associate of Danish, will be meeting a contact near Dilshad Garden Metro Station parking and thereafter, will come to join Danish," said DCP (Special Cell) Sanjeev Kumar Yadav.
Meanwhile, the second team, around the same time, spotted Deepak Sirohi and he too was nabbed. On a cursory search, a revolver of 0.32 mm bore and four live cartridges were found in his possession.
"Deepak along with Ible Hassan and Danish and others executed a contract killing in which a prominent manpower agent of South Delhi, identified as Farrukh Khan was killed at the behest of his business rival settled in a West Asian country on September 22 last year," said Yadav.
