1) The people who are chasing him stop in between the crowd as they don't see him.
2) The people, who are chasing him, stop in between the crowd as they don't see him.

Those comma in 2) required?
The commas are not required.

Separately, you can't say "in between the crowd." The word between refers to two separate objects, one on one side and one on the other. It does not mean inside a larger object.

They are not required in my opinion. I think you could technically place a comma every time you would stop to take a breath (if you were speaking the sentence), but that is not necessary. For me personally, I try to refrain from using them unless I think their inclusion might add clarity for some readers.

Bear in mind that my rule is not an official rule of grammar. It's just what I do,

To avoid the "between" confusion, I changed as below.

The people who are chasing him stop and look around as they don't see him.
That's fine, Yuva—but I do think that the new version should have a comma after "around".

Why does this needs a comma? the phrase "as they don't see him" is the reason, they stop and look around, so I think no comma is required. To be more clear, I used "as" in the meaning "because".
