During interrogation, the police learned that Khan was earlier a resident of Mumbai and had been working at Baig’s textile workshop since childhood. Khan claims that Baig used to harass and abuse him. The accused then left the job a few years ago and went back to his native state, Bihar, said a crime branch officer.
Three months ago, Khan returned to Mumbai and was staying at his friend’s house. Baig had already shut down his textile business and is currently in the real estate business. Khan came back to Mumbai with the intention to take revenge, bringing a country-made pistol with him. For the last one month, he had been helping Baig with his real estate business, according to the officer.
On Sunday at around 5:30 am, the accused fired at the victim from a close range in Obaid compound in Sanjay Nagar, in the Kurar area in Malad, where both were consuming alcohol together. Khan fired a shot that hit Baig in the ear after an argument. Baig was rushed to the local hospital by his family members and was later moved to J J Hospital. Baig is in a stable condition now.
The Kurar police were informed about the incident and visited the spot, recovering an empty cartridge. An attempted murder case was registered against Khan. Khan fled from Mumbai and was on his way to his native place but got off at the Kanpur railway station and came to Delhi. However, the police followed him and nabbed him once he reached Delhi. He was brought to Mumbai and handed over to the Kurar police for further legal process, added the official.
