Shocking CCTV footage capturing the sequence of events leading to the fatal shooting of a senior corporate executive following a parking dispute in Faridabad has surfaced on social media.
The victim, Paramjit Dhankhar, an executive with a Singapore-based multinational company, was shot dead on November 6 at around 8.30 pm.
The accused, identified as Mohan Sharma, has been arrested. According to police, Dhankhar's family lives on the first floor of a residential building in Sector 21C, while the accused resides on the third floor of the same building.
The CCTV footage shows Sharma speaking to Dhankhar, while the latter's son, Shaurya, stands nearby. Moments later, Sharma pulls out a pistol and fires five to six rounds at Dhankhar.
Despite being wounded, Dhankhar manages to run out of the building, with the accused following him and firing more shots. Sharma is also heard hurling abuses at Dhankhar after saying, "Diwali Mubarak Ho".
According to police, Sharma allegedly fired 15–16 rounds from his licensed pistol, of which eight to nine struck the victim.
Dhankhar's family members rushed him to a hospital, where doctors declared him dead on arrival.
Police have arrested Sharma, while four other people have also been named in the FIR.
Dhankhar, who was based in Singapore, had arrived in India on November 5 to celebrate Diwali with his family. He was also scheduled to attend his nephew's wedding on November 24.
According to police, the two families had a history of disputes, reportedly over a dog defecating in the parking area and disagreements over vehicle parking.
