Gurdaspur, Nov. 2 -- Gurdaspur police arrested two accused and recovered one sophisticated 9MM Glock pistol from their possession, in connection with recent twin firing incidents linked to extortion, Punjab director general of police (DGP) Gaurav Yadav said on Saturday. The accused have been identified as Nitish Singh from Kotla Sultan Singh village in Amritsar and Karan Masih alias Ajay alias Ajju from Deol in Gurdaspur. The bike-borne duo had opened fire at a medical store owner on September 22 and outside a private hospital in Kalanaur on October 15.

The DGP confirmed that both the accused were involved in firing incidents targetting the owners of a medical store and a hospital. Further investigations are underway to establish forward and backward linkages, he said.
