: Four alleged cattle smugglers tresspassed on the high-security National Security Guard campus at Manesar here late on Monday evening to escape the police party chasing them. One of them allegedly opened fire when challenged by the security guards inside the campus before fleeing.

Chased by police

According to the police, the four men in a mini-truck were being chased by the police from Tauru in Nuh district when they entered the Kherki Dhaual police station area in Gurugram. “The police tried to stop them by placing barricades, but they managed to break the barrier and escape. Chased by the police, the four abandoned their vehicle near the NSG campus and climbed its boundary wall. They probably did not realise that they had entered the NSG campus because it was dark,” said Assistant Sub-Inspector Umesh Kumar.

A security guard inside the campus fired a warning shot and one of the men returned fire. “The four then fled the campus,” said Mr. Kumar. Separate cases have been registered at the Kherki Dhaula and the Manesar police stations in this connection.
