The man was an eyewitness in a murder case. A case has been registered,” he added.
In the second incident, a 30-year-old man Sombir was shot dead by two unidentified assailants at his house in Jassaur Kheri village under the Bahadurgarh sub-division of Jhajjar district, police said.

His family woke up after hearing the gunshots but the assailants escaped on a motorbike. Sombir reportedly died on the spot.
