Son Allegedly Shoots Father Dead Over Property Dispute in GhaziabadPreviousNext

In Ghaziabad's Modinagar area, 32-year-old Nikhil allegedly shot his 52-year-old father, Hariom Chaudhary, dead over a property dispute involving assets worth around Rs 150 crore. The argument reportedly escalated after Nikhil, who was intoxicated, demanded the transfer of remaining family land, which his father had refused due to concerns over misuse. Nikhil fled the scene with the firearm, and police have launched multiple teams to apprehend him. Investigations and forensic analyses are ongoing.
