In Delhi’s Trilokpuri, a young gym trainer was shot five times while he was warming himself up by a makeshift bonfire in a park. The victim has been identified as Ravi Yadav, 32, and is currently admitted to Max Hospital in critical condition. The Delhi Police have arrested two accused in the case, Rohit and Golu. It was revealed that another accused named Sunil alias Golu had an old rivalry with Ravi.
The police said that Ravi’s family had a rivalry with the family for over 10 years and there are many cases filed against them too. Reportedly, both Ravi and the accused have a criminal past.
A case of attempted murder has been registered against the accused and an investigation has begun in this connection.
The entire incident took place when Raju, who is a bodybuilder, was warming himself up by a fire along with his friends in a park. Ravi was initially rushed to Lal Bahadur Shastri Hospital where he was declared to be in critical condition and sent to Max Hospital in Patparganj.
Speaking on the incident, DCP East Delhi Apoorva Gupta said, "Ravi Yadav’s family has a long-term rivalry with a family living in 13 Block, Kalyanpuri. These families apparently keep filing complaints and RTIs against each other. Yesterday, in a sessions court in Karkardooma, a heated debate happened between the two sides, which allegedly led to this incident. We are verifying the facts and the family’s statement is yet to be taken. We are questioning two of the three names accused by the victim. The search for the prime suspect is ongoing."
According to data by the Delhi Police, 30 per cent of the murders were attributed to sudden provocations or trivial issues, 22 per cent were due to enmity, 12 per cent were because of family disputes, 10 per cent were due to illicit relations, 8 per cent were committed by criminals, 4 per cent were unidentified bodies, and 6 per cent were due to ‘other reasons’.
There were a total of 472 incidents reported in 2023 where firearms were used, while 428 such incidents were reported this year till November 30.
