There was a stir in Maqsuda Sabzi Mandi when a youth opened fire in broad daylight. The surprising thing is that a police team was present on the spot at the time of the incident and the entire incident of firing took place in front of them. According to eyewitnesses, the youth who fired the shot is said to be a lawyer. As soon as the information of firing was received, the police of Thana 1 immediately reached the spot and investigation has been started.
There is a lot of anger among the local people about the incident. It is being told that some time ago, Shanti, the head of the Mandi’s Arhatiya Association, had received death threats. It is feared that this firing incident may also be related to the same dispute. Rakesh Kumar, in-charge of Thana 1, confirmed that he has received information about the case and he himself is investigating by reaching the spot. Attempts are also being made to suppress this matter. At present, the police is claiming to investigate the matter seriously, but there is an atmosphere of insecurity among the traders and local people in the Mandi.
