Gangster Claims Responsibility for Masked Gunmen Attack on Gurugram Real Estate Office

Gurugram, Sep 19 (PTI) A group of masked gunmen opened fire at a real estate company's office in Sector 45, causing widespread panic in the area, according to police. The attack, which occurred on Thursday night, involved the firing of 25-30 rounds at the office of MNR Buildmark. The bullets shattered windows, and glass shards were scattered throughout the scene.

Around 9:30 PM on Thursday, four to five masked gunmen entered the office building and fired indiscriminately before fleeing the scene. Upon receiving information about the incident, a police team quickly arrived and launched an investigation. They found bullet marks on the office windows and on luxury cars parked inside.

Gangster Deepak Nandal claimed responsibility for the attack on social media. In a viral post, he alleged that the shooting was carried out on his instructions. However, the post was later deleted. An FIR was registered in the matter at the Sector 40 police station based on a complaint from property dealer Shravan Raheja.

A senior police officer stated that the motive behind the shooting, whether it was extortion or something else, will only be determined with the arrest of the suspects. “We are investigating the case from all angles. CCTV footage is being reviewed to identify the culprits, and the social media post is also under investigation. We expect to unveil the details surrounding the shooting soon,” the spokesperson for the Gurugram police noted.

MNR Buildmark operates a company office managed by 11 builders involved in the sale and purchase of projects from prominent builders in Gurugram and Delhi-NCR. This incident adds to a series of firing incidents in Gurugram over the last few months. In July, assailants opened fire at Haryanvi singer Rahul Fazilpuria, and his close friend Rohit Shakeen was gunned down in August. Later in August, gunmen fired almost two dozen rounds outside the house of Fazilpuria's friend and YouTuber Elvish Yadav.

The Gurugram police are working diligently to ensure the safety of the community and bring the perpetrators to justice. The ongoing investigations and increased security measures aim to prevent such incidents in the future.
