New Delhi: In a major security lapse in the national capital, a 22-year-old man shot and injured himself inside the ever busy Rajiv Chowk metro station on Thursday night.
The man claimed he shot himself so as to alert security agencies and make them heighten the security. He claimed that the security guards did not screen his bag in which he kept the gun.
The man further claimed that when he was at the Aligarh Railway Station, he had heard two people talking about an attack in Delhi. He claimed that he even saw them carrying magazines.
On Thursday, the man along with his sister managed to pass through security checks at Chandni Chowk station on the yellow line of the Delhi metro around 6:30 PM. He kept the bag with the gun near the place where the tokens are distributed. After security check he entered the station and collected the bag from near the token distribution area.
CISF sources said that they have deduced how the man pulled it off by analysing CCTV footage.
His sister said, "The man said he did this for the country. He was not depressed. He wanted to help people."
