The victim’s family rushed towards them and took him to the hospital. His condition is serious.

According to police, Tariq and Shoaib are cousins with personal differences. The former shot the latter because his wife Chandni did not marry his brother.

The family filed an FIR against three suspects. Two of them got arrested, and are searching for the third accused.
