Crime News: Violence has once again struck the Premnagar area of Dehradun, where local BJP leader Rohit Negi was shot dead. The incident occurred near Peepal Chowk in Manduwala after midnight on Monday. Preliminary investigations suggest a dispute over a female friend as the primary motive. Police have launched a search for the accused, Ajhar Tyagi, a resident of Muzaffarnagar (UP).
The Full Story of the Incident
According to reports, 22-year-old Rohit Negi, involved in property dealing, was returning home with friends when Ajhar Tyagi, riding a motorcycle, appeared in front of their car and shot him in the neck. Negi fell to the ground and was immediately taken to a hospital by his friends, where he was pronounced dead.
Dispute Over a Female Friend
It has been learned that one of Rohit's friends was involved with a young woman from the Muslim community, with whom they were living together.
