The caller allegedly claimed to be associated with gangster Goldy Brar.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/>Jain received three missed calls around 8.15pm, following which his son Ayush received a call from the UAE number at around 9.27pm. A case was registered at Roop Nagar police station on September 17.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/>Police said analysis of the communication trail showed that the calls were routed through virtual private server and data-centre infrastructure linked to the UAE.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>The investigation led police to Aarif alias Pistol, 32, who allegedly acted as a link between the Dubai-based callers and their associates in India. He was arrested from Ahmedabad&#8217;s Vejalpur on September 24 with Gujarat Police&#8217;s assistance.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>According to police, Aarif allegedly paid a Dubai-based associate, Aarish, to make the extortion call and instructed him to speak in Haryanvi to make it appear that the threat came from a local criminal.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>Police subsequently arrested Mubarik alias Gullu from Delhi on September 25. He allegedly helped plan the extortion attempt and arranged accommodation in Kirari for shooters who were to carry out the threat if the demand was not met.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>Police said intelligence inputs later indicated that the accused planned to fire multiple rounds at Jain&#8217;s Roop Nagar residence and then repeat the extortion demand. Preventive arrangements were made at the house, foiling the alleged attack.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>During the probe, police found that the same UAE number was allegedly used to target another Delhi businessman in Rohini. On September 19, the younger brother of a construction businessman received two WhatsApp calls and a 37-second audio message from the number.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>The caller allegedly identified himself as Vikrant from Mahendergarh, claimed affiliation with the Goldy Brar gang and demanded Rs 1 crore within 48 hours, threatening firing and other consequences. <!-- -->A separate case was registered at Vijay Vihar police station on September 24.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>Police said four suspected shooters, two from Panipat and two from Khalapar in Muzaffarnagar, had allegedly been engaged to execute the threats. One of them, Nawab Ali alias Sonij, was apprehended on October 1 from a moving train near Rewari with the assistance of the Railway Protection Force, police said.<\/p>\n<div data-type=\"in_view\" class=\"  \">\n<div class=\"LEzX4\">\n<div class=\"PmOGb\">\n<p class=\"PSf84\">Share your thoughts in the comments<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm \">Insightful<\/button><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm \">Agree<\/button><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm \">Disagree<\/button><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm \">Skeptical<\/button><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm \">Concerning<\/button><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm \">Promising<\/button><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm \">Worth Reading<\/button><button type=\"button\" class=\"sUTYm \">Big Development<\/button><\/p>\n<p><textarea class=\"T9MbS\" rows=\"1\" placeholder=\"Add your Thoughts...\"\/><button type=\"button\" class=\"ZW6JD \" disabled=\"\">Post Comment<\/button><\/p>\n<p class=\"swnca\">Be respectful \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatimes.com\/termsandcondition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" class=\"gkv0P\">TOI community guidelines<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/>Police said Aarif has been named in 12 cases registered between 2016 and 2026 at Kairana police station in Shamli, including cases related to attempt to murder, extortion, criminal intimidation, rioting and Arms Act offences.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"32\"\/>Police are now looking for the remaining accused and the Dubai-based caller.
