Three minors held for extortion

Three juveniles were apprehended for an attempt to murder and extort money from a businessman in Delhi’s Welcome area, police said on Friday.

The three were nabbed from Kabir Nagar Madina Masjid Gali on Thursday.
Delhi Police said they had received a call on Thursday at 7:30 pm regarding a firing incident at Kabir Nagar Madina Masjid Wali Gali in Welcome Delhi.

The accused, a 16-year-old accompanied by a few others, arrived at the house of the victim, Mursaleen (28) and smashed a glass bottle at the iron gate, demanding to talk to him.

“They arrived at Mursaleen’s house, demanding that he open the gate and talk with them. When Mursaleen did not open the gate, he fired several rounds in the air outside the gate. The culprits also found Mursaleen’s nephew, Mohd Shammi (25) outside in the gali and roughed him up,” police said.

The accused minor had been demanding that Mursaleen pay him Rs. 10,000 per month as protection money, said police.

Mursaleen runs a jeans packing unit, and his nephew Mohd Shammi also works with him.
