Delhi Police made several arrests of key members of banned Indian Mujahideen this year including its chief Tehseen Akhtar but faced major law and order challenges with Trilokpuri riots and a 100 per cent Women security, which has been the Achilles’ heel of the force since the brutal gangrape of a physiotherapy student in 2012, was again in the spotlight when a 27-year-old financial executive was allegedly raped by a Uber cab driver inside his taxi on December 5. However, unlike last time, police was praised for a prompt action in the case. The case of Sunanda Pushkar, wife of former Union minister Shashi Tharoor who was found dead at a 5-star hotel on January 17 remains the biggest mystery of the year with conspiracy theories flying thick and fast but no concrete development taking place in the probe. The anti-terror unit of Delhi Police, Special Cell, tasted major success this year as it managed to neutralise the top leadership of banned terror group Indian Mujahideen. Its Indian operations chief Akhtar alias Monu was arrested by the unit from Indo-Nepal border on March 25. His arrest had come days after another top IM operative Zia Ur Rehman alias Waqas was nabbed from Ajmer in Rajasthan along with three of his associates.
