Police arrested the main shooter identified as Rehan along with a juvenile suspect in the murder of Monish Khan, who was shot dead in a daylight incident in Ranihola, Delhi on October 11, the Special Cell revealed. The arrests mark significant progress in the high-profile case that drew public attention due to its brazen nature.
Investigators recovered two pistols and three live cartridges from the accused during the arrest operation. The recovery of weapons is expected to strengthen the prosecution's case and aid in establishing the sequence of events that led to Khan's killing.
The Special Cell has intensified its investigation to determine the motive behind the murder and establish the roles of other suspected conspirators. Preliminary findings suggest the shooting was not a random act of violence, though authorities have not disclosed further details about the circumstances or potential connections between the victim and accused.
The case has drawn attention from senior law enforcement officials monitoring organized crime activities in the national capital. Investigators are expected to produce the suspects before a city court for remand proceedings and further questioning.
