A 27-year-old man has been arrested for killing his uncle in Dwarka, the police said on Friday. Two others have also been held in connection with the case.
DCP (Dwarka) S.K. Meena said the accused have been identified as Rajbeer (27) and his friends Abhishek (19) and Lalit (24). The trio shot 63-year-old Ajeet Singh while he was sleeping.
After this, the trio robbed a food delivery boy of his motocycle at gunpoint.
On July 26, the victim had a fight with his nephew over construction work that was under way at the former’s house. The victim’s son and the accused’s father were also involved in the fight. Rajbeer had also allegedly threatened to kill Singh.
