“The incident took place under Aerodrome police station limits. Pravesh died on the spot, while Javed is battling for life in a hospital. They are the sons of retired police constable Allah Noor Sheikh. Pravesh was unemployed, while Javed was an autorickshaw driver. The unmarried siblings often fought over money matters,” the DCP said.
