The Delhi Police’s Crime branch arrested a 17 year old for killing two brothers due to harassment in east Delhi’s Geeta Colony.
According to the police on Monday, on Saturday at 06:41 pm, information was received at Geeta Colony police station about a 20 year old Sahid having gunshot injuries on his head. He was declared brought dead by the doctor.
“The deceased was brought to hospital by his elder sister. On enquiry, sister of the deceased stated that some children informed that her brother Shahid was lying in the street and blood was oozing. She took her brother to LNJP where he was declared dead. She didn’t know more about the incident,” DCP Crime Branch Rakesh Paweriya said
Further, the deceased’s elder brother 30 year old Irshad, alias Bobby, was also found missing and the house of the deceased was found locked from the outside, which is hardly 30 to 40 meters far away from the spot.
The local police noticed some fresh blood flowing out in the small drain of the house and then the lock of the house was broken and found that Irshad was lying unconscious inside the house and was having gunshot injury in his head. “He was sent to the hospital where he was declared dead. He was married,” he said.
“The shooter was identified as one juvenile, who was on the run since the incident. In the enquiry, he stated that they took the ground and first floor of the house of Rani Garden on rent from father of the deceased about four to five years back and given Rs 4 lakh in lieu of the security. In a written document, it had been agreed that they can stay there as long as the money is not returned,” he said.
However, Asfak got married with his second wife and went to some unknown place from there. “After that, the deceased people started pressuring them to vacant their rented house. Both were aggressive and they used to harass the juvenile as well as his family. He was so fed up due to day to day harassment being done by the deceased persons,” the DCP added.
On 14.09.2024, at about 3 to 4 pm, the juvenile was in his house and the deceased Irshad started abusing him without any reason and he shot him. “After that, he saw Shahid at his shop and he also shot Shahid on his head with point blank. Then he left the spot and kept the pistol (weapon of offence) in the house of his cousin in Rani Garden,” he said.
