Who Was Jitendra Maan aka Gogi?

Jitendra was arrested around two years back in Gurugram after he evaded the police for years. From murders, to extortion, Mann was involved in a slew of crimes and had received most-wanted status by the police.

Reportedly, Jitendra was a Delhi University topper. Back in 2010, Gogi and Tillu Tajpuria locked horns during the Delhi University student elections. Although Gogi’s associate withdrew from the elections, Delhi got its two biggest gangs who would indulge in rivalry for the next 10 years.

In 2016, Gogi was arrested by the police. Somehow, he managed to flee and thus, a Rs. 4 lakh reward was imposed on his head. In 2017, Gogi’s members gunned down folk singer Harshita Dahiya, who was a prime witness in a murder case lodged against Gogi’s associate.

In 2020, Gogi and his gang members were arrested by Delhi Police.
