The police have arrested, Rajinder, alias Joker, a native of Hisar and the prime suspect in the Madanpura firing case of November 11. He was carrying a country-made pistol.

“The suspect has eight cases registered against him at police stations in Punjab and Haryana. He was also involved in a firing incident at Balongi in 2017 in which a financier was injured,” said Phase 1 SHO Shivdeep Singh Brar.

Four suspects, who were in an SUV, first rammed their vehicle into a motorcycle of the victim, Rohit, a resident of Balongi village, and later fired a shot at him. Rohit and his friend ran in separate directions and took shelter in nearby houses. Preliminary probe revealed that there was an old enmity between Rohit and the suspects. — TNS
