Upon discovering his absence, the staff promptly notified their superiors, an officer mentioned. Deepak was apprehended by the team from the same area the following day.

Police stated that a case under section 224 (resistance or obstruction by a person to his lawful apprehension) of the IPC has been filed against him at Rajouri Garden Police Station. (With inputs from PTI)
