In a previous incident, at least two people, including a woman, were injured after shots were fired at Delhi’s Saket court. A team of the Delhi Police Crime Branch arrested the accused who opened fire in Saket court premises today, according to an ANI.
A rather peculiar angle to the firing case came to the fore, as Delhi Police revealed that the woman who was shot, was involved in numerous fraud cases in the past. The shooter, Rajendra Jha, was an advocate in Saket court and was in his uniform at the time of the incident.
