The injured businessman, identified as Manoj Kumar, runs a grocery store in Nehru Market under the name Sant Ram Vijay Kumar. He was immediately rushed to the hospital for treatment.
It's worth noting that a few months ago, the businessman had received threats on his life from a terrorist named Arsh Dalla. These threats prompted him to file a police complaint. Subsequently, he had received calls demanding ransom.
A licensed pistol in Manoj's possession accidentally fell from his hand, leading to the firearm discharging. This incident resulted in a gunshot wound to his leg. Manoj Kumar's identity was confirmed as the injured businessman.
This incident highlights the dangers and challenges faced by individuals dealing with threats to their safety and security, especially in regions where such threats are prevalent.
