Gurgaon, Dec 12 (IANS) A victim of Tuesday’s shooting in the intensive care unit (ICU) of a hospital here succumbed to injuries while the condition of his father is stated to be serious, police said Wednesday.
Over a dozen armed men opened fire at Satbir Singh Raghav, a delivery man, and his son Joginder, a.k.a. Jony, at the Sunrise Hospital in Gurgaon over a rivalry on parking of commercial vehicles.
The father-son duo was referred to the city’s Medicity Medanta hospital, where Joginder succumbed to injuries while Satbir was later shifted to Ram Manohar Lohia hospital in Delhi.
Warrants have been issued for suspects Manoj Singh, Raghav, Mohan, Basant, Kalu, Ram Avtar, Rajender and others — all residents of Khandsa village — to which the victims also belonged.
“We have recovered the CCTV footage from the hospital and an investigation into the case is on,” a senior police official said.
One suspect, Manoj Singh, a.k.a. Pradhan, is already in police custody.
