Gogi was shot dead by members of Tillu Tajpuriya gang inside Rohini district court in September last year. According to investigators, Tajpuriya gang has links with the gang run by jailed gangster Bawana.

The investigators also said that Prakash’s murder also marked a departure from the normal practice by waring ganglords in which family members were not targeted.

“Gangs of Bawana, Tajpuriya and Parvesh Mann collaborated to kill Prakash. Two of the alleged killers were arrested... While investigating the case, the police came to know that Kapil’s friends in the gang were planning to avenge Prakash’s killing,” the DCP said.
