A 19-year-old youth was shot dead in Delhi's Shahdara following an altercation over a minor dispute, police said on Sunday.

According to the police, three juveniles have been apprehended in the case and the incident occurred on Saturday in the Kailash Nagar area.

"On Saturday, information was received at Gandhi Nagar police station regarding shooting of a person at Gali No. 8, Chanderpuri, Kailash Nagar. Police teams were rushed to the spot immediately. The victim was identified as 19 year old Sufian and had suffered serious injuries. He was rushed to Jag Pravesh Hospital where he was declared dead," a police officer said.

“Accordingly, a case under section 103(1) (punishment for crime), 3(5) (joint liability) of BNS and 25, 54 and 59 of Arms Act was registered at Gandhi Nagar police station and during the investigation of the case three separate teams were constituted for nabbing the accused persons who shot at the deceased,” the officer said.

During the initial investigation, the police found that an argument broke out between Sufian and the accused over a cap. Amidst this, Sufian reportedly slapped two of the accused, who later plotted his murder.

Police have apprehended three juveniles from different locations in Delhi and Ghaziabad. They recovered a country-made pistol and a scooter from their possession. They are also searching for one more suspect and the mother of one of the accused who reportedly aided in providing the weapon, he added.
