On receipt of this complaint, local intelligence was developed and the facts of the complaint were ascertained.
On August 6, a team of Inspector Arun Dev Nehra, SIs Manoj, Ram Dev, ASI Bhupender was constituted under the supervision of Dinesh Sharma, ACP DIU. The team then conducted raid in the factory that was being run in premises situated in sector-1 of DSIIDC, Bawana in Delhi.
