A gym trainer, Vijay Kumar, was shot dead in Delhi’s Aya Nagar on Monday morning. Reportedly, four assailants on two motorbikes carried out the attack and fled the scence. Vijay was hit by four bullets, two of which struck his head, killing him on the spot.<\/p>\n

A post in the name of Himanshu Bhau has appeared on social media in connection with the murder. It claims responsibility for the killing. The post carries a warning in Hindi: “Running away will not work; come to the field. I will not let anyone escape.”<\/p>\n

According to police sources, the post says “Bhau Gang” and “Since-2020”. Police are investigating whether the claim is linked to the murder.<\/p>\n

Gym trainer Vijay Kumar had been running the gym for six years.<\/span><\/p>\n

A child was sent to call Vijay outside<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Vijay’s uncle Devendra told the police that Vijay had left home for the gym at 5 a.m. He learnt at 10 a.m. that someone had shot Vijay.<\/p>\n

Devendra further said that the attackers knew CCTV cameras had been installed near the gym. To conceal their identities, they got Vijay called out of the gym by a child. Two of the four attackers remained seated on the motorcycle, while the other two opened fire at him.<\/p>\n

The deceased Vijay is survived by his wife, two children and a sister. His younger brother is in jail in a murder case.<\/span><\/p>\n

Link also emerging with murder case from two years ago<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Vijay’s uncle Devendra said that two years ago in Aaya Nagar village, Vijay’s younger brother Ajay’s friend Deepak had murdered a young man named Arun. Apart from Deepak, Ajay and another man named Yogesh were also found guilty in the case. All three are lodged in Tihar Jail.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Arun’s family suspects that Vijay, Ajay’s elder brother, was also involved in the murder. Devendra claims that, because of this, members of Arun’s family had threatened Vijay several times.<\/p>\n

Police are now investigating the links between the old murder case and Monday’s incident.<\/p>\n

The attackers fired more than 60 rounds at dairy businessman Ratan Lohia.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is the second incident in a month in which the Himanshu Bhau gang has claimed responsibility for a murder in Delhi. Earlier, on 3 September, 55-year-old dairy businessman Ratan Lohia was shot dead outside a gym in Bankner village in Narela.<\/p>\n

After conducting reconnaissance of the area for several hours, the attackers allegedly fired more than 60 bullets at them. Investigators examined several aspects of the murder, including the possibility of a contract killing.<\/p>\n

Two alleged sharpshooters from the Himanshu Bhau gang have been arrested in the case. The investigation is ongoing. The investigation team is now also examining the pattern of these two incidents.<\/p>\n
