New Delhi, March 5 : A civil defence volunteer shot himself with a country-made pistol to implicate his neighbours with whom he had a fight few days ago in south Delhi’s Neb Sarai, the police said on Thursday.
He has been admitted to the hospital and would be arrested once discharged.
The police got suspicious when on March 3, Sujeet Kumar made a PCR call and reported he had been shot by bike borne men but the eye witnesses at the so called spot didn’t notice any firing incident or sound. No blood could be discovered or found at the spot.
His wife Anshu was also an accomplice in the act and played a role misleading the police.
She locked the house and left without informing anyone, did not join enquiry and was not receiving phone calls from the police. A CCTV footage of the area collected showing the only a motorcycle entering the area at the time of incident was not identified by the victim.
On examination, the boys residing in the neighbourhood with whom Sujeet claimed to have a fight some days ago disclosed that the victim Sujeet was carrying a pistol in the morning and had shown the same to them.
