Shahrukh Pathan is the main accused in another case in which he had brandished his gun and shot at Head Constable Deepak Dahiya, in full public view. His illicit firearm, a 7.65 mm pistol along with 2 live rounds, was recovered from him.

Pathan fired several shots and emptied shells that were recovered at the spot. While a charge-sheet has been filed in the Maujpur riot case, three more charge-sheets will also be filed today at around 2 pm today.
