The narrative around Delhi’s Turkman Gate clashes is facing fresh scrutiny after new CCTV footage showed masked, camera-aware individuals arriving prepared during a midnight demolition drive. Officials say the operation was conducted lawfully under court orders to clear illegal constructions, with prior communication and heavy security deployment. Despite this, violence broke out as barricades were breached and stones were thrown at police. CCTV, drone footage and body-cam visuals are now central to the investigation. Five arrests have already been made, and police say the footage undermines claims that innocent civilians were targeted without provocation. As more evidence is examined, the focus has shifted to whether the violence was orchestrated rather than spontaneous.
