Sunil Jain, a 52-year-old businessman, was shot dead by two unidentified assailants on a motorcycle in Delhi's Shahdara district on Saturday morning.
The attackers fired multiple rounds, fatally wounding Jain in the lower abdomen and face before fleeing the scene; he succumbed to his injuries en route to the hospital.
Police are investigating various angles, including the possibility of mistaken identity, as the attackers reportedly asked about a person named 'Virat' before the shooting.
Jain's family reported no known threats or rivalries, and police have formed multiple teams to analyze CCTV footage and question acquaintances.
The incident has led to political criticism of Delhi's law and order, with AAP leaders blaming the BJP-led central government for rising crime in the capital.
