WATCH: Delhi Police Constable Tackles Two Men Accused Of Murder And Robbery

The accused were identified as Dhyan Singh, 26, and Navneet, 21, and a country-made pistol was found in the possession of them.

A Delhi Police constable on Tuesday succeeded in overpowering and nabbing two men accused of murder and robbery when one of them tried to open fire at him in a bid to flee, officials said.

The head constable Manoj caught the two accused in outer Delhi's Nihal Vihar area, the officials said, according to PTI. 

The accused were identified as Dhyan Singh, 26, and Navneet, 21, and a country-made pistol was found in the possession of them. 

The entire act was captured in a video in which two men can be seen riding a motorcycle. When the constable approached them with a pistol, one of the accused managed to flee, while the other pointed his pistol at the head constable. Without caring for his life, Manoj jumped towards him and overpowered the accused. Locals also joined the police and helped them in overpowering the accused.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Outer), Harendra Singh said that the two head constables were patrolling when they saw the two accused on a motorcycle. 

“On Tuesday, head constables Manoj and Devender were patrolling. When they reached Macchi Chowk, Nilothi saw the two accused riding a motorcycle. When the culprits saw the beat staff, they tried to flee but their vehicle fell on the road. Acting swiftly, Devender nabbed the rider, but the pillion rider started running, who was chased by Manoj,” Singh was quoted by PTI.

According to the Times of India, the bike in which they were riding was found to be stolen. Dhyan Singh was found involved in a case in Najafgarh and was granted bail last year.
