A 48‑year‑old property dealer and his employee were shot dead at the dealer’s farmhouse in Punjab’s Mansa district on Friday morning, prompting the police to launch a full-scale investigation.
No arrests have been made so far, and the identity and motive of the attackers remain unknown.
Bhagirath Singh Meena, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Mansa, said, “We have formed different teams and are exploring the case from various angles. We are trying to ascertain whether there was any personal enmity involved. We received information about the incident from the family at around 11 am and reached the spot soon after.”
Responding to a media query about a ransom call, Meena said, “So far, family members have not shared any such information.” “Our teams are actively working on the case, and we will soon achieve a breakthrough.”
According to sources, the shooting took place around 10 am at the farmhouse of property dealer Jasvir Kumar, located on the outskirts of Sardulgarh.
Preliminary information shows that unidentified assailants entered the farmhouse, and opened fire, killing him and his employee, Baldev Kumar, on the spot.
Sources said one of the bodies was found lying on a chair, while the other was on the ground.
Satpal Kumar, Jasvir’s paternal uncle, told reporters the family was in deep shock and unable to comprehend the motive behind such a brazen crime carried out inside the farmhouse.
Sources said Jasvir lived in the Sardulgarh area.
