The sharp shooters identified as Sumit Talian, a resident of Meerut, and Hoshiar Singh, a resident of Palwal, were lodged in Tihar Jail after their arrest in Delhi by special cell of Delhi police on March 11. On February 25, about a dozen people shot at and killed liquor businessman Surjit Thakran and his younger brother, former councilor Paramjit Thakran in Khod village of Pataudi. So far, the police have arrested three people in this case. Police sources say the councillor was killed for being in contact with the Kaushal gang. “We are questioning the accused and expect to nab other accused involved in the shooting,'' said Patuadi ACP Harinder Kumar.
