After a double murder event was reported in the RK Puram neighbourhood of Delhi early on Sunday, Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi, questioned the city’s law and order condition.
According to authorities, two women were shot and killed early on Sunday morning in the vicinity of Delhi’s R.K. Puram police station by unknown assailants. The families of the two women are in our thoughts. May God grant them eternal peace. The citizens of Delhi have begun to feel extremely uneasy. The people responsible for Delhi’s law and order are conspiring to capture the entire Delhi government, instead of fixing the law and order. Today, if Delhi’s law and order were under the AAP government instead of LG, then Delhi would have been safest,” Kejriwal said in a tweet (roughly translated from Hindi)
According to Manoj C, Deputy Commissioner of Police South West Delhi, police had received a call at 4:40 am in RK Puram police station stating that some people had shot the caller’s sisters at Ambedkar Basti.
Responding to the call, a police team reached the spot wherein it was found that two ladies Pinky (30) and Jyoti (29) were shot and were shifted to SJ hospital but they succumbed to injuries.
Prima facie it seems that shooters were looking for the victim’s brother and the reason behind the shooting seems to be some money settlement issue, however, the exact cause will be ascertained only after a prolonged investigation, said the police official.
A case has been registered under the relevant section and police are looking for the arrest of the accused.
