Jaipur: Sriganganagar police have released photographs of three suspects wanted in connection with the brazen daylight firing at a real estate businessman near a gym on June 17. The intensified manhunt for the shooters now stretches across Punjab and Haryana. The photos, made public along with a reward of Rs 25,000 for each accused, are part of an ongoing effort to track down what police believe to be a gang of contract shooters involved in a wider network of organised crime.According to superintendent of police (SP) Gaurav Yadav, the three suspects—Rahul Kumar from Narnaul, Haryana; Rohit Sharma from Mahendragarh, Haryana; and Sukhwinder Singh alias Sukhi from Muktsar Sahib, Punjab—are on the run. Police said the trio stayed at a hotel in Sriganganagar to monitor Gupta’s movements before choosing a low-traffic area near a gym for the ambush.The suspects fled toward Punjab after the shooting. Their alleged accomplice, a car driver identified as Purushottam Singh from Kotkapura in Punjab, was arrested June 18. He is believed to have helped the shooters escape and is currently being questioned. His call records are also under examination as part of efforts to identify additional individuals involved.The shooting appears to be linked to an escalating gang rivalry. Shortly after the attack, social media accounts associated with the Anmol Bishnoi and Rohit Godara gangs posted messages claiming responsibility and threatening rival groups. Police suspect the posts were intended to bolster the gangs’ image and assert control over territory.The shooting took place outside a gym on Jassa Singh Road on June 17. Victim Ashish Gupta, a 50-year-old real estate businessman, had just stepped out after a workout when he was fired at.
