Noida: Two cases of firing occurred in Noida within a time period of half an hour on Tuesday night. The condition of one is known to be stable, while the other died on the spot.
Shiba Thomas, an employee of Nemesis Solutions, was at 11.30 pm shot dead by four men on motorcycles after she was allegedly dragged out of the car following an altercation of one and a half minutes with the assailants.
“There was an argument going on and a little later we heard a shot. Her earrings were lying in the car,” an eyewitness said.
Though the police haven’t been able to trace the accused, they say Shiba might have known the assailants.
“Prima facie it seems the victim was known to them. Otherwise why would they talk and fight for a minute and a half,” SSP Noida Satyendra Garg said.
About half an hour later, police complacency stood exposed when retired army official, Lt Gen T J S GILL was shot at near Amity Business School by three men on a motorcycle who allegedly wanted to steal his car. They shot at Gill when he resisted.
“My dad was shot at in the abdomen and the arm. He drove back to the house himself and asked me to take him to the hospital,” Gill's Son Amol said.
Gill was rushed to the Army Hospital (Research & Referral). Doctors say his condition is stable now.
