Jarwal claimed that he was shot at on Wednesday by an illegal alcohol distributor, who had been chasing him for the past three days. He alleged that despite asking the police for security, no action was taken in this regard. “My life is in danger. I was previously attacked on Sunday and informed police about it but nothing was done,” he said. In the police complaint, Jarwal said an AAP worker was also given death threats by the same person over phone. Jarwal said he had call records of the conversation. Deputy Commissioner of Police (South), Vijay Kumar said the CCTV footage collected from the spot does not show any incident of firing. He said further investigation is underway.
