Forensic analysis has confirmed that approximately 1,500 individuals were present during the violent mob attack on police in Nahal village on May 25, which resulted in the death of Constable Saurabh Deshwal. Investigators used mobile tower location data and recovered video footage from three CCTV systems installed in nearby homes to establish a clearer timeline and identify individuals involved.
From the compiled digital evidence, authorities have identified at least 140 people allegedly engaged in the violence, including stone-pelting and firing. So far, 65 individuals have been detained for questioning, with 15 found to be directly involved in the assault. Those arrested include Qadir alias Mantar, a known history-sheeter. His brother Adil has also been seen in footage physically attacking police personnel.
