The main suspect, Rajesh, has been arrested but two others accompanying him are on the run. The site of the shooting is barely 300 metres away from both Connaught Place and Barakhamba Road police stations.
Rajesh, a small businessman, is a resident of Uttam Nagar in west Delhi. A .32 bore pistol was recovered from him. His Santro has also been impounded.
It was around 5.30am when Rajesh and two of his friends, Vishal and Sahil, arrived at Jain Eatery. They ordered food which was served in their car. They were reportedly consuming alcohol.
Police said when the accused had finished eating, they spotted a waiter, identified as Monu, clearing dishes. They called Monu and asked him to eat a paratha lying on one of their plates.
Monu, in his statement, said the trio was livid when he refused to eat the paratha and were trying to force him to do so. Monu ran away and informed his colleagues and an argument ensued.
Eyewitnesses said when the eatery staff objected to their behaviour Rajesh whipped out a pistol and opened fire. While witnesses said two rounds of bullets were fired, police said only one round was fired on the spot.
Monu had a close shave as he ducked to avoid the bullet. Within seconds people gathered on the spot at the sound of gunfire. As the staff raised an alarm, two policemen arrived. Seeing the policemen, the accused drove away in their car, a senior police officer said. It was constable Dharmveer who chased and nabbed Rajesh. However, Vishal and Sahil managed to escape.
Eatery manager Dharmpal Singh, who has worked there for 35 years, said the eatery near Shivaji stadium stays open till late hours and reopens at 5am. The accused arrived around 5.30 am, he said.
Police have registered a case of attempt to murder under Indian Penal Code and relevant sections of the Arms Act. Rajesh was produced in a court and remanded in police custody.
A medical examination has established that Rajesh was under influence of alcohol. Police are investigating how he procured the weapon and are trying to trace his associates.
