The firing took place on the night of November 4, 2026, in Guru Nanak Nagar, Mohalla Delhi Colony, which falls under Police Station Division No. 1, Rai said. A police party reached the spot on receiving information and found Sahil there; he told police that two persons had fired at him and at his car.

FIR 359/26, and what the probe found

On the basis of Sahil's statements, case No. 359/26 was registered under various sections at Police Station Division No. 1 and the investigation began, Rai said. During the probe, police found that a few days earlier Sahil and the other party had quarrelled over abusive phone calls made to women of each other's families, and that the two sides also had a running dispute over a money transaction, Prime Indian News reported.

Police claim: a drug-money dispute, not parking

Mera Bharat News reported a further police account of the motive. ACP North Karnail Singh was reported as saying that contradictions appeared in Sahil's statements from the start: he kept describing a parking dispute as the reason for the firing but could not give clear information about the person he claimed to have had the parking dispute with. CIA Staff and Police Station No. 1 teams then investigated from several angles.

According to that report, police claim Sahil himself was involved in the drug trade and had a dispute with a partner over drug money, and that the two sides had also exchanged abusive phone calls to women at each other's homes. Police allege the other side then sent two shooters who fired at Sahil's car and house, and that Sahil initially gave the parking-dispute story to hide the alleged drug trade and money dispute. These are police allegations reported by Mera Bharat News; they have not been tested in court.
