Amidst panicked crowds, Aman was seen fleeing behind the counter to save himself. The two men in orange and white shirts pursued him and fired at close range.
Meanwhile, unfazed by the shooting, the woman simply walked out of the restaurant.
According to the police, approximately 40 rounds were fired at Aman.
At the time of the incident, there were around 50 people present, including a dozen staffers. “By the time people could comprehend what was happening, the shooters had fired about a dozen bullets. It all happened in seconds… As soon as their first magazines were empty, people started running out,” said a waiter who declined to be named. The shooters, along with a woman, blended into the fleeing crowd and escaped while appearing to be customers.
Rakesh Bakshi, managing a nearby food van, vividly recalled seeing the body lying amidst the chaos. “Initially, we mistook the sound of at least 15 rounds being fired for firecrackers. But as the noise continued, I stepped out and saw people running,” he said. Later, a few individuals entered and Bakshi noticed the injured man’s hand on the ground. “It was a horrific scene.”
Subsequently, the outlet staff instructed everyone to evacuate. “This incident is unprecedented in this area,” he reflected somberly. “It felt like a terror attack… We sought cover as bullets flew,” recounted a local resident, emphasizing the fear that gripped the scene.
Hours after the incident, a social media post emerged claiming responsibility for the attack by foreign-based gangster Himanshu Bhau.
The post stated that they had avenged the killing of ‘Shaki Dada,’ allegedly by their rival gang.
It also mentioned names of alleged gangsters Naveen Bali, Neeraj Bawana, Kala Kharampur, and Neeraj Faridpur.
An officer mentioned that the gang, operating in Delhi and Haryana, is notorious for extorting money, and police are verifying the authenticity of the social media post.
Police have also launched a search for the woman who was with the victim during the incident.
