Satnam Singh, a resident of Jaijon, was returning from the Mahilpur Community Health Centre with his wife, Jaswinder Kaur, in their car. As they reached near Khanpur village, four men on a motorcycle and a scooter signalled them to stop. Singh refused to stop the car, following which four men fired shots at the vehicle.
The accused fired three shots — two hit the car's rear indicator and one hit a window. However, no one was injured in the incident. The couple reported the incident to the police.
