Those booked were identified as Shubham Singh of Nehru Colony and Balwinder Singh, alias Billa Sarpanch, alias Chairman, of Preet Vihar, Airport road. He hails from Hawellian village, infamous for drug peddling.

They were booked after they did not appear before the court after getting bails. Notorious gangster Shubham Singh has been out of the police reach. He was wanted by the police in many criminal cases, including that of a murder, attempt to murder and robberies. He was also wanted for the murder of Hindu leader Vipin Sharma.
