The newly recruited gang member was identified as Piyush Barela a.k.a Sunny, a resident of Manglapuri area. Deputy Commissioner of Police (Special Cell) Manoj C. said that information was received that the gangsters Rohit a.k.a. Moi and Monu Dagar, a key member of Gogi gang, are planning to murder a rival gang member through some newly inducted member of their gang.
