Ludhiana: Wanted in attempt to murder cases, a notorious criminal, along with an unidentified accomplice, opened fire outside the house of a realtor in Guru Arjun Dev Nagar early on Monday.
Police said Ajay Pandit and his aide fired a shot at Sandeep Singh Dhaliwal, 30, who ducked it. A bullet shell has been recovered from the spot.

Realtor Sandeep and Ajay lives in the same locality.
Sandeep said, “On April 23, my friend Shammi had come to meet me at my office, which is at my house. After Shammi left, I learned that he and Ajay were fighting in the locality. When I reached there to resolve the issue, Ajay, his brother Rajan Pandit and their accomplices tried to shoot at me. The gun, however, did not go off. They then thrashed me and fled.”
In the incident, Division 7 police had booked Ajay, Rajan and their accomplices under sections 307 (attempt to murder), 506 (criminal intimidation), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 341 (punishment for wrongful restrain), 34 (act done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of the IPC and the Arms Act.

“Ajay wanted to strike a compromise with me in the attempt to murder case, but I refused. He then pressured me and even threatened me of dire consequences through neighbours,” Sandeep added.
“Around 12.30am Monday, my doorbell rang. I then heard somebody say, “Sandeep come out’. Smelling a rat, I went upstairs to check who was there. When Ajay saw me on the rooftop, he fired a shot at me. I had a narrow escape. There was a masked man with him. When I raised the alarm, they escaped on a bike. There was a car parked at some distance. I feel Ajay’s accomplices were sitting in the car.”
Sandeep then called up the police.
Assistant commissioner of police (East) Devinder Chaudhary said, “Ajay is wanted in two attempt to murder cases. He is a notorious criminal, with several criminal cases against him. The accused will be traced soon.”
On May 3, Ajay and his accomplices Naveen Negi, Mandeep Sanhotra, Mandeep Monu, Vishal Kumar, Shashi Kumar (an illicit liquor smuggler) and two unidentified ones were booked in an attempt to murder case on the complaint of victim Sandeep Kumar, 33 of Kasabad village.
