A head constable of a police special team invited friends to a party at a government quarter, placed weapons there and later reported them, leading to their arrest after a mobile check uncovered a conspiracy.
A senior constable serving in a police special team in Rajasthan arranged a gathering at a government residential quarter, ostensibly to celebrate with friends. He covertly placed firearms and other weapons at the venue before the guests arrived.
After the friends entered the premises, the constable alerted senior police officials, providing details of the weapons and the attendees. Acting on the tip, officers raided the location and detained the young men present.
Subsequent forensic examination of the detainees' mobile phones revealed coordinated planning, suggesting the gathering was a front for a larger illicit scheme. The investigation is now focusing on the network behind the conspiracy.
A police spokesperson confirmed that the operation was conducted in accordance with legal protocols and that the arrested individuals will face charges under the Arms Act and related statutes.
The case underscores internal vigilance within law‑enforcement agencies and raises questions about the misuse of official quarters for unlawful activities.
