Armed men enter Delhi salon, shoot two dead at point blank range

Two men were allegedly shot dead by assailants inside a salon in south-west Delhi’s Najafgarh, police said on Friday.

The deceased have been identified as Sonu and Ashish, both in their early 30s and residents of Najafgarh, said an officer, adding that they were shot multiple times in front of other customers and salon workers. The two assailants, meanwhile, fled the spot after the incident, and a PCR call was made to the police amid the panic.

A purported clip of the CCTV footage capturing the incident has gone viral on social media, where one of the victims can be seen pleading to the assailants for mercy. He was later, in the video, shot in the head at point blank range.
