The shooting incidents — between May 17 and June 15 — that HT analysed resulted in 16 deaths and left at least 22 people injured

New Delhi:
At least 220 bullets have been fired on Delhi’s streets in 43 incidents of shooting reported in the Capital over the last 30 days, according to HT’s analysis of all such incidents at a time when senior police officers are expressing concern about how many of the shootings are being reported from central, south and west Delhi rather than the city’s outer reaches.

The shooting incidents — between May 17 and June 15 — that HT analysed resulted in 16 deaths and left at least 22 people injured. These do not include cases where victims were held at gunpoint but no shots were fired, or where knives or other weapons were used.

The crimes occurred across the city — from Barapullah flyover in the south to central Delhi’s Karol Bagh, and from west Delhi’s Dwarka to Kalyanpuri in east Delhi. Those who were killed or shot at include gangsters, a social media star on TikTok, property dealers, jewellers, hoteliers, journalists, and businessmen. In each case, illegal pistols were used. In nine cases, police shot at the criminals and fired at least 32 bullets in all.

Many of the shootings were the result of turf wars, old gang rivalries, personal enmity, attempted robbery or snatching, extortion, and police shoot-outs with criminals. Barring three cases, they took place in public places — streets, offices, restaurants, and shops.

There is no ready comparative data from the previous years because the police do not keep a citywide record of shootings, and the crimes are lodged in individual police stations. But several senior offices, who asked not to be named, said Delhi criminals showing no fear in settling disputes through the barrel of a gun in public places, and often in broad daylight, is a new and worrying phenomenon.
