He has also ensured the arrest of alleged serial killer Mahanand Naik and the Chandrakant Talwar gang members, who were involved in a series of murders of women for money. He earned the respect of his colleagues and general public when he led from the front to launch a jungle operation in the Agonda forest against the armed kidnappers of Starling D'Souza, son of a North Goa hotelier, and ensured the safe rescue of the victim. He also supervised the police team that rescued the kidnapped Aamir Sayed from Vasco and Sagar Wadhwani from Mysore. He has closely guided the Goa police's special investigation team (SIT) in investigations and arresting the accused responsible for planting bombs on October 16, 2009, which was applauded by the national investigation agency (NIA), which later took over the investigations.
