Phagwara, March 12
The rear glass of an Innova car belonging to AAP leader Daljit Raju was found shattered under mysterious circumstances here on Wednesday evening, police said.
Raju, the Doaba in charge of the ruling Aam Aadmi Party’s Backward Class (BC) Wing and a resident of Darveshpind village nearby, said he had come to shop on Khera Road along with his security personnel.
After parking the car on the roadside, he went inside one of the shops.
“I heard a loud noise and came out of the shop to find the rear glass of my car shattered,” he said.
On receiving information, Phagwara Superintendent of Police (SP) Madhvi Sharma reached the spot and assessed the situation. CCTV camera footage is being analysed, and police teams have been formed to probe the matter, she said.
Raju has received threatening calls in the past. In November last year, unidentified people opened fire at Raju’s residence at Darveshpind village. A handwritten slip demanding a ransom of Rs 5 crore was found at the house after the firing incident.
