New Delhi: A 38-year-old taxi driver was shot dead inside his car last night in Delhi's Dwarka area. The murder took place near Khaira mod at around 7:30 PM. An official said that the man was shot personal enmity. The deceased has been identified as Dhirendra, a resident of Galibpur.
"Dhirendra was found dead in his taxi with a gunshot injury and on initial investigation, it has been revealed that a suspect came to meet him at Khaira mod. Both sat in Dhirendra's car and had a conversation during which the suspect shot the victim," said a senior police official.
He added, "We have formed multiple teams to nab the accused. We have significant leads in this case. Prima facie, personal enmity is the suspected reason behind the killing of Dhirendra."
A few months back, a similar incident had taken place in Gurugram where a 37-year-old taxi driver was shot dead by three motorcycle-borne men over alleged personal enmity. The deceased was identified as Rahul.
In the police complaint, the victim's wife said that her husband was near their house when they heard gunshots and rushed out to check. “Three unknown persons arrived on a motorcycle and shot him multiple times. My sister-in-law informed the police control room. We rushed him to a hospital, where he was declared dead,” she said in the FIR.
