Mumbai: Real estate agent shot at in Kandivali, probe on

Police said the incident took place around 2 pm when D’lima was leaving an English-medium school in Ganesh Nagar after meeting someone. As soon as he stepped out, three persons waiting outside opened fire. “One bullet hit in his abdomen and another hit in his chest,” the official said.

According to officers, the bike rider and one pillion were wearing helmets, while the third man was wearing a cap. The shooters had covered their faces with masks, police said.

The motive behind the crime is yet to be ascertained.

CCTV cameras in the area are being checked, and a forensic team has collected evidence from the spot, the official said.

A police officer said the real estate agent has enmity with several individuals, and some of them are being questioned “to get leads.”

A relative of the victim told mediapersons that D’lima had received a threat call three days earlier and the caller “had threatened him with dire consequences.” D’lima had approached the police and registered a non-cognisable offence. He also recorded the call and submitted it for investigation.

Charkop Police have registered a case of attempt to murder along with other relevant sections of the BNS.
