Chandigarh Police Head Constable Shot Dead at Home; Son Arrested for Murder
A Chandigarh Police head constable, Nitin Singh, was shot dead inside his Sector 22 residence, with his 18- or 19-year-old son, Armaan, detained and later arrested for the killing. Police investigations suggest a family dispute over Armaan's demand to marry his girlfriend before turning 21 and financial issues. Armaan allegedly tried to harm his mother, who escaped and alerted neighbors. A country-made pistol was recovered, and police are examining all angles, including Armaan's prior legal case and attempts to mislead investigators.
