Armed violence in the capital: One person died, another was injured

A 24-year-old man was killed and another was injured in two shooting incidents carried out by three youths within 10 minutes in different areas of northeast Delhi.

According to police on Saturday, the accused first opened fire on a person in Welcome’s Kabir Nagar around 1 am, looted his car and drove him to a place in neighboring Jyoti Nagar and opened fire on a house.

While Nadeem and Shahnawaz suffered bullet injuries in the first incident, no one was harmed in the second incident. Police said that the two injured were taken to hospital, where Nadeem was pronounced dead and Shahnawaz is recovering.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (northeast) Rakesh Paweriya said the three suspects were nabbed and interrogated. “They first received information about firing in Kabir Nagar and when the team was sent, they found three spent cartridges and a motorcycle on the roadside,” he added.

When the police investigated the situation, they found that the motorcycle belonged to the defendant, who left the motorcycle there and fled with the motorcycle belonging to one of the victims.

Meanwhile, at 1.26 am, another PCR call was received from neighboring Jyoti Nagar area that three men had opened fire on a house.

The caller, identified as Rahul, said that the accused suddenly came and opened fire on his house, but no one was injured in the incident. Six spent cartridges and one live cartridge were found at the scene.

Another officer said the accused were later nabbed from the same area. The accused is suspected to have a financial dispute with Nadeem to the tune of Rs 10,000. They wanted to target him, but Shahnawaz also suffered a bullet injury in his leg as he was standing nearby. The interrogation continues to determine the exact reason why the defendants fired from both places.

A case under sections 103 (1) and 3 (5) of the BNS and 27 of the Arms Act was registered at the Welcoming Police Station and under sections 109 (1) and 3(5) and 25 and 27 of the BNS. The Arms Act is also registered in Jyoti Nagar.

Senior AAP leader and Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj on Saturday criticized the BJP for the double firing incident in Delhi, saying the city gave seven MPs to the party but felt it was not at all responsible for law and order in the city. Another was injured in two shooting incidents carried out by three men within 10 minutes in separate areas in north-east Delhi in the early hours of Sunday. Addressing a press conference here, Bharadwaj said he felt the BJP had no responsibility for Delhi’s law and order. “So we do not see any statement from their leaders or the LG (lieutenant governor) regarding such incidents.” “BJP feels that they have no responsibility for law and order in Delhi. The people of the city give them seven MPs, but still they do not issue any statement regarding such incidents or any plan to improve law and order,” he said. . The minister added that people and businessmen were living in fear in the national capital.

Meanwhile, Delhi BJP Spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor slammed the AAP government, saying it was unfortunate that Delhi Government ministers, who have failed Delhi on every front, are trying to show that the law and order situation in Delhi has collapsed. Delhi BJP Spokesperson said that most of the crime incidents reported in the last few months were actually not for extortion but for personal enmity. Even the incident at Welcome Colony on Friday was the result of a commercial monetary dispute. The victim knew the attackers, as in the earlier incident in Farsh Bazar. Delhi BJP Spokesperson said shooting incidents need to be checked, but Delhiites appreciate the almost 100% crime detection rate of Delhi Police.
