Kolkata
The prime accused in Kolkata’s Gulshan Colony shootout was arrested from Delhi on Sunday (September 21, 2025) night. Mini Firoz is a local strongman in eastern Kolkata who has been absconding for the last 10 days since the violence shook the residential area near Eastern Metropolitan Bypass on September 11.
Mini Firoz or Mohammad Firoz was booked under sections 109/3(5)/324(2)/351(3) of BNS, sections 25/27 of Arms Act and section 9 of West Bengal Maintenance of Public Order Act, the Kolkata Police officials said on Sunday (September 21) night.
“He is being brought on transit remand to Kolkata,” Kolkata Police officials further added. Four others accused in the same case are already in police custody.
A team of Kolkata Police went to Delhi after they got a credible tip off about Mr. Firoz’s location and picked him from his hideout in the national capital.
