Superintendent of Police (Investigations) Aditya Warrior said after analysing the footage of CCTVs in the area, one of the shooter was identified as Lovepreet Singh, a resident of the city.
“After hard efforts by the Jandiala Guru police, he has been arrested. His interrogation was in progress and his accomplices have also been identified. Raids were on to nab them,” said Warrior.
He said the incident was the outcome of personal enmity and it was not some gangster-related instance as being earlier reported.
“It was neither the monetary dispute nor gang war, the firing was the result of some personal enmity,” said Warrior.
