Gill was employed at Amazon as a senior manager. Singh, 32, resides in Bhajanpura and runs a restaurant there named “Hungry Momos.” At the moment, he is getting treatment at LNJP hospital.
When the five attackers on a scooter and a motorcycle caught up with the pair and started shooting at them, the duo were riding a motorcycle.
Police are searching footage from nearby CCTV cameras to identify the offenders as all of the suspects are on the run.
The gruesome shootout is another grim reminder of crime–infested national capital and how the criminals operate freely. A 22-year old man was stabbed to death in Central Delhi after entering into a quarrel. A 7-yr-old was sexually assaulted by her neighbour in Lodhi colony by a 50-yr-old man. A counsellor from the Delhi commission for Women was roped in who interacted with the mother and the child. The accused has been sent to judicial custody.
A Delhi woman lost about Rs 1.7 lakh to a Insta friend whom she had befriended recently. The man told her that he could help her alleviate her financiual condition. She got a fake call from the Customs Dept to pay for converting a gift with US dollars amounting Rs 80 lakh.
