A man fired at least one shot during a wedding in Jammu where former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah was present, police said. The accused, identified as Kamal Singh Jamwal, was quickly overpowered by people at the venue and later taken into police custody. Abdullah escaped unharmed. However, Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary suffered a minor splinter injury. Police said the motive is still under investigation. During questioning, Jamwal claimed he had been trying to kill Abdullah for the last 20 years and called it his “personal agenda”. CCTV footage shows the man pointing a gun at Abdullah at close range before security personnel intervened. (PC: India Today)
