Tragic Shooting In RK Puram: Sisters Fatally Shot By Assailants, Mistaken Identity Suspected

The assailants, originally intending to target the victims' brother, mistakenly opened fire on the sisters, leaving the community in shock and mourning.

In a shocking incident that unfolded in the early hours of June 18, two sisters were tragically shot dead in Dr Ambedkar Basti, located in South Delhi's RK Puram area. The deputy commissioner of police revealed that the killers had apparently intended to target the victims' brother but mistakenly ended up shooting the sisters instead, as per media reports.

The victims, identified as Pinky (30) and Jyoti (29), were residents of Dr Ambedkar Basti, which falls within the jurisdiction of the RK Puram police station. Upon receiving a distress call from their brother at 4:40 am, the police rushed the injured sisters to Safdarjung Hospital, where they were unfortunately pronounced dead.

Expressing his condolences, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal extended his sympathies to the grieving family while directing blame towards the BJP-led central government. Kejriwal lamented the growing sense of insecurity among the people of Delhi and criticized those responsible for law and order for allegedly conspiring against the elected Delhi government.

"The people of Delhi have started feeling very insecure. The people who have to handle the law and order of Delhi, instead of fixing the law and order, they are conspiring to capture the entire Delhi government. Today, if Delhi's law and order was under AAP government instead of LG, then Delhi would have been safest," Kejriwal expressed in a Hindi tweet.
