NEW DELHI : Police in Delhi claim they are not able to yet trace the men responsible for late night shooting outside gates of Jamia Millia Islamia University on Sunday night. Though CCTV footage has captured the entire incident, no details to their identities could be gathered, claim Delhi police.
Well into Sunday night, two unknown men arrived on a scooter and pulled shots into the sky before speeding away. The shootout is the third in four days of protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act(CAA) in the capital. The shootings are aimed at intimidating protesters and are invariably carried out close to their gathering venues.
Citing lapse on part of law enforcement related to the spate of shootings, the Election Commission shifted DCP Chinmaya Biswas from his post. Delhi goes to polls on 8 Feb
Meanwhile, in an outrageous development BJP MP Arjun Singh came out with open support for the shooter. While the Muslims at Shaheen Baug demonstrated with Opposition Support, protest at Jamia Millia is not related to CAA; Our students are mistaken, said the MP.
Shooter Gopal Sharma Not a Minor
Records with Election Commission crumbled Shaheen Baug shooter Gopal Shama’s claims that he was a minor. The EC website shows Gopal registered his Voter-Id on 2 April 2019 and is a bonafide voter from Uttar Pradesh’s Jawahari.
