AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

A day after businessman Pankaj Nayyar was shot dead in a parking dispute in East Delhi’s Preet Vihar, police arrested a second suspect, Sunil Sharma—a 41‑year‑old property dealer from Noida who was an associate of the main accused, Gaurav Sharma, and had been present during the altercation; they also apprehended Gaurav’s 24‑year‑old stepson Siddharth, a competitive‑exam aspirant, from a Shahdara hotel for involvement in the scuffle. Investigators say the unlicensed pistol used belonged to Gaurav’s brother and was discarded after the shooting; Gaurav, previously jailed in 2021 for a GST fraud, claimed he had been staying in Preet Vihar while his house in Shakurpur was under renovation. The motive stemmed from a long‑running feud over Gaurav’s Fortuner and BMW parking, during which he allegedly fired at Pankaj, hitting him in the chest, and assaulted Pankaj’s brother Paras with the gun’s butt. A case has been filed under sections for murder, voluntarily causing hurt, common intention and relevant provisions of the Arms Act, with searches ongoing for at least two more suspects.
