Gurugram: The gym coach was allegedly shot by his brother-in-law at Farrukhnagar on Sunday, seven years after he married his brother who was accused and married to the wishes of the family.
Rajesh Saini, who also has a gym in Farrukhnagar, was beaten on the shoulder and was undergoing treatment at a private hospital.
His brother-in-law, Sachin Kumar, could not be traced.
Police said Rajesh and his girlfriend from Rewari had married running in 2014 after their family objected to their marriage to the problem of caste.
The couple spent a few months in various cities.
When they finally returned to Farrukhnagar after marriage, their family accepted it.
“I received me, but my brother-in-law didn’t.
He often threatened me with a terrible consequence.
Over the years, I hope he will accept our relationship in the end,” Rajesh said.
The police said around 11:45 pm on Sunday, Rajesh and his wife fell asleep when the doorbell rang.
Rajesh opened the door to find Sachin standing outside along with two of his friends.
“He took out a gun and threatened to teach me a lesson.
But before I could understand anything and increase the alarm, he caught my hand and tried to drag me out of the house.
I ran to cover up when he fired a shot.
The bullet hit my shoulder,” said Rajesh.
Rajesh blooded running in the room and locked the door.
When his wife rushed out, Sachin escaped from the place.
The case has been registered against the Sachin under the IPC 307 section (murder attempt) and 34 (general intentions) and the relevant parts of the ARM acting at the Farrukhnagar police station.
“We tried to track the defendant,” said Subhash Police spokesman Benek.
