The fifth suspect in the Parliament security breach case has been caught by the Delhi Police’s Special Cell, according to the reports. Officials said, the incident, which happened on the 22nd anniversary of the 2001 Parliament attack, involved a well-planned intrusion by six people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During questioning, it came out that the six the accused had been in communication for four years and had carefully planned the breach a few days before the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to sources, in the days before the intrusion, they conducted reconnaissance of the Parliament building and coordinated over social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sagar Sharma and Manoranjan D, who were caught by MPs on Wednesday, December 13, during Zero Hour, jumped from the public gallery into the Lok Sabha chamber, yelling slogans and discharging yellow gas canisters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two were placed under police custody, and shortly after, Amol Shinde and Neelam, a man and a woman, were arrested for protesting in front of the Parliament building while brandishing cans that gave off a yellowish smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to sources, the plan had been developed by two more individuals in addition to the four that were arrested. Five of the accused had stayed at Lalit Jha’s house in Gurugram, including the two who joined the Lok Sabha. Five have been located and arrested; the sixth is still missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The probe is being headed by Delhi Police’s Special Cell, which handles counterterrorism activities. A complaint has been filed under the strict Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), among other sections, including trespass, criminal conspiracy, obstruction, and provocation with the aim to provoke a riot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The suspects admitted under questioning that they were all connected to the Bhagat Singh Fan Club on social media. About a year and a half earlier, they had met in Mysuru, where they later made their plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One member of the team even entered Parliament earlier in March to assess the area as part of their thorough reconnaissance operations. They took advantage of a security lapse in which shoes weren’t properly inspected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla verified the intruders’ capture and the material’s seizure after the breach. According to preliminary findings, the smoke posed no threat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
