New Delhi: Two men from Haryana have been arrested by the Delhi Police for their alleged involvement in the shooting of a head constable, a senior officer confirmed on Friday. The incident took place on Wednesday in Sonipat's Ashok Nagar area.
"On November 15, the Sonipat Police received a PCR call regarding a firing incident on a Head Constable of Delhi Police identified as Parveen. He sustained serious injuries and was immediately taken to the hospital. An FIR was registered, and a manhunt was initiated," said Special Commissioner of Police (Crime) Ravindra Singh Yadav. The Delhi crime branch formed a team to investigate the case following the incident.
Based on information collected through surveillance, the team set a trap near Samalkha in Panipat and apprehended two individuals, 39-year-old Sushil and 50-year-old Shilak Ram of Sonipat.
