Wife and son of a Judge shot down in Gurugram

 

The wife and son of a judge were shot allegedly by his personal security staff member in Gurugram’s Sector 49 in broad daylight Saturday. The attacker also fired some shots outside a nearby police station. The police arrested the accused after a search operation.

Police said the incident occurred around 3.30 pm when additional sessions judge Krishan Kant’s wife Ritu and son Dhruv had gone for shopping in the Arcadia market. They were accompanied by the judge’s guard, Mahipal.

DCP-East Sulochna Gajraj said the two have been rushed a hospital in the city where they are in “critical” condition.

“Some locals informed the police about gunshots being fired outside the Arcadia market. When a police team reached the spot, they found Ritu and Dhruv lying in a pool of blood,” Gajraj said.

She said Ritu has suffered a bullet injury in her chest, and Dhruv in his head. “They were taken to the Medanta Hospital where they are undergoing treatment but their condition is critical,” according to the officer.

Visuals from the spot show the attacker trying to put the judge’s son in a car and then abandoning the attempt.

Gurugram Police PRO Subhash Bokan said Mahipal was being interrogated to establish the reason why he opened fire.
