Youth Arrested in Failed Grenade Attack on YouTuber

Hardik Kamboj, aged 21, was arrested in connection with a failed grenade attack on Rozer Sandhu, a Jalandhar-based YouTuber. The attack did not cause any injuries, as the object did not explode. The accused was later injured in an exchange of gunfire with police during his arrest.

A young man accused of throwing a 'grenade-like object' at the residence of a Jalandhar YouTuber has been apprehended by the police in Haryana's Yamunanagar district.

The suspect, identified as 21-year-old Hardik Kamboj, was transported to Jalandhar for weapon recovery. During the process, Kamboj opened fire at the officers, leading to a retaliatory response in which he sustained a leg injury, authorities confirmed.

The non-explosive incident, targeting YouTuber Rozer Sandhu, was claimed by Pakistani gangster Shahzad Bhatti, citing offenses against Islam. Police seek another individual's involvement, while further investigations are underway. Additionally, a .32 bore pistol was retrieved from the scene.
