Gurugram, Dec. 16 -- At least one acre of Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) land in Sector 66, allegedly captured and rented out by "two criminals," was cleared of permanent and temporary structures during a demolition drive by police and the district administration under heavy security on Monday, officers said. Police said the land was encroached nearly five years ago, with over 50 commercial establishments forming an unauthorised market complex. The nexus was allegedly operated by Narender Singh alias Tillu and his brother Ravi Singh from Ravidas Colony, Badshahpur, who ran the operation from inside Bhondsi jail, police said. A senior police official said the duo collected Rs.5-6 lakh monthly as rent from squatters, used to fund criminal activities. "Narender was operating the Tillu gang, from which the Badshahpur people used to remain terrified. Using the terror, the duo captured empty government lands for running unauthorised market complexes," the officer said. They charged Rs.200-500 daily per shop, acting as protection money, with an estimated illegal collection of Rs.2-5 crore over five years, he added. An MCG official said earlier clearance attempts failed due to protests. "Finally, help was sought from police and administration," he said. No arrests were made during the drive. Sandeep Turan, public relations officer of Gurugram police, said Ravi has five criminal cases since 2018, while Narender has 13 cases, including murder and illegal firearms, registered between 2012 and September this year. Turan said both are jailed, and police are seeking production warrants. "The duo's name is already included in the bad-character element list... and they are high-risk criminal elements," Turan said, adding efforts continue to dismantle the gang and choke its revenue....
