The Delhi Police has arrested a 38-year-old man who had been declared a proclaimed offender in a rape and POCSO Act case, an official said on Friday.
The accused, identified as Rinku alias Monu, a resident of Jaffarpur Kalan in southwest Delhi, had allegedly been evading court proceedings since 2024.
He was apprehended following a tip-off about his movement near Kazipur village, a police officer said.
Police said the accused was wanted in connection with an FIR registered at Jaffarpur Kalan police station.
“He was declared a proclaimed offender by a Dwarka court on April 4, 2025, after he failed to appear before the court for proceedings in the case,” the officer said.
