According to the complainant, the incident occurred around 9.15pm when stopped at a grocery store on Rezang La Marg, Chauma road in Gurugram, to purchase a bottle of water.

“Just as I got inside my car, a man slid into the passenger seat. Not realising his intentions, I told him it wasn’t his car. That’s when he pulled out a gun from under his T-shirt and pointed it at me,” Arvinder Singh Bhamra said.

“I kept the calm and asked him what was wrong. Just then, two more men came to my side of the car, pointed a gun at me, pulled me out, beat me up, and sped away in my car,” Bhamra said.

After trying to chase after the accused in vain, Bhamra reached the Palam Vihar police station and reported the incident.
