The accused was arrested near Dhulsiras village in Dwarka with an illegal country-made pistol and two cartridges.

According to The New Indian Express, Mor had yelled at the accused and allegedly assaulted him in front of many people. This prompted the accused to get a gun and shoot Mor out of anger.

"During the investigation, it was found that the juvenile and Mor had a fight at a gym which led to the victim assaulting the accused in front of other people," a senior police officer was quoted as saying by IANS.

The officer added, "The infuriated juvenile then decided to kill Mor. He along with his two friends searched for the victim but could not find him in the gym." The police are trying to find the other two accused.
