NEW DELHI: A video of firing near a house in North East Delhi's Yamuna Vihar went viral after two men on a scooter fired several rounds. No arrest was made in the case.
Police received information at 1.14 am on Feb 28 regarding a PCR call about firing near a house in Yamuna Vihar. A team from the local police station rushed to the spot and found four empty cartridges on the road near the gate of the house.
On inquiry, Shahnawaj (39) reported that at around 1.05 am, he heard the noise of firing. As he came out, he saw two unknown persons firing in the air near his house, and they fled the spot on a scooter. Shahnawaz denied receiving any threat calls.
Police said they registered a case. FSL teams inspected the scene, and teams were formed to collect technical and manual input to identify, trace, and arrest the person involved. Cops are scanning CCTV footage to ascertain the sequence of events and the routes taken by the suspects to flee.
A similar incident occurred in Delhi's Shahdara last month.
Man arrested for firing at car in ShahdaraA birthday celebration took a drastic turn in Shahdara when a man ended up in jail for firing multiple rounds at a car. The intended targets, Diwakar and Mukul, narrowly escaped the attack while drinking tea at a roadside stall.
Diwakar (28), a resident of Shahdara, told police that he and Mukul had stopped for tea after purchasing flowers from the Ghazipur Phool Mandi when four men in a car confronted them.
The group initiated an argument and damaged Diwakar’s car mirror. When Diwakar and Mukul demanded compensation, one of the men, intoxicated and armed, fired two to three rounds into the ground before aiming at the car’s bonnet. Mukul quickly drove away, while Diwakar ran to the Anand Vihar police station to seek help.
A case was registered, and DCP (Shahdara) Prashant Priya Gautam assigned a team to investigate.
CCTV footage confirmed the involvement of four suspects. Acting on a tip-off, police arrested two of them, identified as Suhel Khan and Ankit, while efforts are underway to apprehend the remaining culprits.
