Based on a complaint lodged by the victim, Sameer Ralhan, the Moti Nagar police yesterday registered a case against Sukhwinder Singh and Parminder Singh, both residents of Gurbachan Nagar, Lohara.

According to the complaint, on August 29, Sameer was standing outside his factory when a truck stopped nearby and the occupants threw rubbish at his gate. When he confronted them, the accused became enraged and a scuffle broke out. The men then pulled out a pistol, hurled abusive language and fired shots into the air to intimidate him.
