    How the shooting transpired?

    How the shooting transpired?
  • Around 12:30 pm yesterday, Balveer Singh entered the barracks for lunch.

    He was reportedly very upset as his leave had been denied; in a "fit of rage" he picked up his weapon and started shooting at personnel who were at the barracks just before starting their shift.

    Singh fired randomly and managed to shoot 32 rounds before he was overpowered by others.

  • Contradictory versions

    Circumstances that led to shooting

    Circumstances that led to shooting
  • Singh was reportedly furious as his leave request was denied. However during interrogations he was evasive about giving straight answers.

    He mentioned that one of his family members was murdered but refused to give details.

    CISF denies that leave was the real issue. Singh had recently returned from leave 8 days ago and had availed 87 days leave last year, well above authorized annual-leave.

  • Data

    What follows next?

  • Singh, who joined CISF in 2008, had no prior record of either rash behaviour or indiscipline. CISF has therefore now ordered a 'Court of Inquiry' to investigate this tragic incident.
