Delhi: A 20-year-old man was shot dead in northwest Jahangirpuri area of the national capital, police said on Monday. Police suspect the involvement of three men who took him to hospital and later fled.

The victim was identified as Rohit Brar, a resident of Sector 16, Rohini. He suffered a gunshot injury below his left cervical bone, police officials said.

Police said they received information from BJRM Hospital on Sunday that a man with a gunshot injury was brought there. Brar was brought to the hospital by Pankaj, Alam and Akash, an officer said.
