Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], November 24 (ANI): Three persons have been arrested for opening fire at a woman in Laxmi Nagar in Jaipur, police said.

The arrests were made within hours of the incident, police said adding that one more accused in the shooting is absconding and a search has been launched for him.
The survivor has been identified as Anjali Verma and she was allegedly shot after her brother-in-law Abdul Aziz conspired to kill her for the inter-religion wedding.

The girl's brother-in-law Aziz, his friends Mohammad Raja and Raju and the shooter Kalim, a resident of Bihar, have been arrested by Jaipur police late on Wednesday night," said Deputy Commissioner of Police (Jaipur Commissionerate) Vandita Rana.
