A 42-year-old executive at a Singapore IT services and solutions company was shot dead after a parking dispute in Faridabad on Friday (Nov 06, 2026) evening. The police arrested the accused, identified as Mohan Sharma, a real estate agent, who lived on the third floor of the same multi-storied building in Sector 21C where the victim lived with his family.

The victim, Paramjith Dhankhar, had returned from Singapore two days ago to attend a family wedding and celebrate Deepavali with his family.

According to the complaint filed by his 19-year-old son Shaurya, the accused rang the bell of their flat around 8.30 pm and asked Mr. Dhankhar, who had returned from the gym a few minutes ago, to come down and move his car. Shaurya also accompanied his father to the parking lot.

An argument allegedly broke out between the two men after which Mr. Sharma allegedly pulled out a pistol and fired several rounds at Mr. Dhankhar. He also fired at Shaurya who managed to escape unhurt by taking cover behind parked cars. The accused subsequently fled the scene in his vehicle. Mr. Dhankhar succumbed to bullet injuries.

“Around 14 to 15 shots were fired, of which eight or nine reportedly hit the victim. His son, who was present at the spot, escaped unhurt,” said Inspector SHO Pahlad of Surajkund police station. The SHO said that the two men had also had disagreements earlier and they allegedly disturbed the charges after consuming alcohol.

A case has been registered at the Surajkund police station under charges of murder, attempt to murder and criminal conspiracy. The accused was subsequently arrested by the Sector 30 crime branch team on Saturday (November 7, 2026).
