IAF Sentry Shoots Colleague
| IAF Sentry Shoots Colleague
A sentry on duty at Indian Air Force unit at Sulur, on the city outskirts, shot his colleague dead for failing to properly respond to the code word.
According to police, Rajesh Kumar, hailing from Bihar, 'challenged' (a practice in the Force) Deepak Garia, before handing over the duty.
However, Garia, a native of Uttaranchal, reportedly failed to respond properly to the code word, following which Kumar shot three rounds from his rifle - one in the air and two below, police said.
The shots fired below pierced Garia's chest and abdomen and he died on the spot.
Kumar is being interrogated by senior Air Force officials, police said.
