Punjab Murder: A routine Saturday evening, February 21, turned violent in a residential pocket of Punjab’s Tarn Taran district when an altercation spiralled into gunfire, leading to serious injuries to a woman. At around 4.30 pm, CCTV footage shows a man and a woman travelling on a scooter when their way was abruptly blocked by another two-wheeler.
The biker, wearing a red T-shirt and later identified by police as Karan, stepped off and confronted the couple riding the scooter.

According to the preliminary investigation by Tarn Taran police, it came to the surface that both the attacker and the victim lived in the same Patti city’s Garden Colony of Tarn Taran and knew each other.
The police are treating it as a case of obsession gone wrong, several agency reports suggested.
“Karan had been harassing Ruby even before her wedding. It appears he could not tolerate her marriage and fired several shots at her on Saturday,” a police official said as quoted by the NDTV.
At the time of writing this news, the attacker was still absconding, and police are searching for him.
