Gurgaon: A BJP leader driving a BMW in the heart of Gurgaon and barely 28 kilometres from national capital Delhi, was allegedly robbed and then shot in the leg by a man pretending to be a policeman.
At around 4 pm, Ramchandra Maurya, a former legislator from Mirzapur, and another person were driving past the Crowne Plaza Hotel along in Gurgaon's Sector 29 when the incident occurred.
Police say a man driving a Corolla and pretending to be a policeman approached the two and started questioning them. The man shot at them when they lowered their car window and snatched a gold ring, bracelet and around 45,000 rupees, police said.
"Our crime team is searching for him and soon he will be trapped," Station House Officer Hardeep Hooda said.
Mr Maurya was rushed to the Fortis hospital close by, where doctors said he was out of danger.
