The incident took place around 1 pm at Harbans Nursing Home in Kot-Ishe-Khan town. The clinic was located just 100 metres from the local police station.

According to eyewitnesses, the two men posed as patients and fired multiple rounds at Dr Aniljeet Kamboj.

The doctor sustained two bullet injuries and was rushed to a private hospital in Moga, where he is currently on a ventilator and in critical condition.

Preliminary investigation suggested that Kamboj had previously received extortion threats. The attackers reportedly fled the scene on foot.

Moga SSP Ajay Gandhi reached the incident spot. “We have formed multiple teams to investigate the matter and the culprits will be arrested soon,” he assured.
