The Trap is Set! Kundi’s Most Wanted Bootlegger Finally Caged; How Valsad City Police Ended Nirav Patel’s Long Run! (2026)
Valsad City Police Special Operation Report
Under the direct orders of Valsad District SP Yuvrajsinh Jadeja, the local police have struck a major blow to the regional liquor syndicate. In a meticulously planned surveillance operation, the Valsad City Police successfully apprehended a notorious fugitive from Kundi village who had been evading arrest for months. The arrest of Nirav Patel marks a significant win in the district’s ongoing “Special Drive” to flush out wanted criminals and enforce the strict Prohibition Act in early 2026.
The Takedown: Intelligence Meets Precision
The arrest wasn’t a stroke of luck but a result of high-level human intelligence and tactical patience.
- The Lead: While on routine patrol, Head Constables Diwanji Danaji and Narendrasinh received a “golden tip” from a confidential informant. The tip confirmed that the wanted bootlegger would be passing through a specific point in the Valsad City limits.
- The Ambush: Under the strategic guidance of Police Inspector Dinesh Parmar, a surveillance net was cast around the area. As soon as the suspect entered the “kill zone,” the team moved in with precision, cordoning off all exit points and leaving him with no room to escape.
Profile of the Arrested Fugitive
| Detail | Information |
| Name | Nirav Shaileshbhai Patel |
| Residence | Bhinar Faliya, Village Kundi, Dist. Valsad |
| Primary Charges | Multiple offenses under the Gujarat Prohibition Act |
| Status | Classified as “Wanted/Absconding” (Nasata-Farta) |
Inside the Operation: The Surveillance Strategy
To catch a “Nasata-Farta” (absconding) criminal, the police often use a specialized workflow:
- Informant Networking: Reactivating old contacts in the suspect’s home village (Kundi).
- Digital Footprint Tracking: Monitoring calls and movements through localized towers.
- Physical Cordon: Creating a temporary “check-gate” without alerting the public to ensure the suspect is trapped.
SP Yuvrajsinh Jadeja’s Zero-Tolerance Policy
Since the start of 2026, the Valsad District Police have intensified their crackdown on bootleggers.
- The Message: This arrest sends a stern warning to the “Liquor Mafia” operating in the border areas of Kundi, Vapi, and Daman.
- Next Steps: The City Police are now interrogating Nirav Patel to uncover his Supply Network. Investigators are looking into who provided him shelter while he was on the run and where his primary liquor stashes are located.
Why This Arrest Matters?
Kundi village and its surrounding faliyas have often been flagged as sensitive zones for the illegal transport of liquor into Gujarat. By removing a key player like Nirav Patel, the police have disrupted a significant logistics link in the local trade.
