A 54-year-old man, wanted in three cases of human trafficking and absconding for the past six years, has been arrested from southwest Delhi, police said today.
Jaswinder Singh alias Barhmi was arrested by Crime Branch sleuths near Barat Ghar on Main Sagarpur Road, said Ravindra Yadav, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime).
He had been absconding since 2009 and was wanted in three cases registered at the Indira Gandhi International Airport police station.
Singh visited Libya and Saudi Arabia in the 1980s in search of work. During that period, he came in contact with Balbir and joined him in sending people abroad on forged passports and visas.
The accused was arrested for the first time in a case registered under various sections of the IPC and Passport Act registered at Chanakyapuri police station in 1985.
In 2009, two similar cases and later another case in connection with human trafficking was registered against him at IGI airport police station.
He was absconding since as the police tried to nab him. He was declared a proclaimed offender by the courts, the officer said.
