Baghpat: Woman shot at for resisting molestation attempt

"He (Farooq Abdullah) was attending a function. We were all with them. When we were departing from the function, a man came from behind, and he ran very fast and placed his revolver on the back of Doctor Sahib (Farooq Abdullah), and he fired, but his shot missed. The people who were with Doctor Sahib's (Farooq Abdullah) security people caught him in a moment, made him fall, pressed him, and, with great difficulty, we took the pistol from him. Then we left from there and came back home," Jan told ANI.

"Allah is kind. My father had a very close shave. The details are sketchy at the moment but what is known is that a man with a loaded pistol was asked to get within range to discharge shot. It was only the close protection team that deflected the shot & ensured that the assassination attempt was foiled. There are more questions than answers at the moment including but not limited to how someone was able to get this close to a Z+ NSG protected former CM," Omar Abdullah posted on X.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP has said that the ongoing conflict "poses serious risks" for India's trade, economy and energy security, as crude prices shot up due to uncertainty in maintaining safety over global shipping routes.

A man was shot in Delhi's Ambedkar Nagar area near Madangir Bhumiya Mandir in the late hours of Monday.

According to the Delhi Police, the victim was alone in his vehicle when the attackers opened fire from close range, resulting in his immediate death.
