New Delhi, October 17: A woman was shot at by her sister-in-law's brother following a heated argument over sharing pizzas in northeast Delhi's Welcome area, police said on Thursday. Four people have been arrested in connection with the incident which took place on Wednesday night, they said. The matter came to light after Seelampur police station received information from GTB Hospital that a woman, Saadma, was brought to the facility with a gunshot injury, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Northeast) Rakesh Paweria said.
"Initial investigation revealed that the victim's brother-in-law Zeeshan brought pizzas for the entire family on Wednesday. He gave them to everyone in the family, including Saadma, the wife of his younger brother Javed," the DCP said. Zeeshan's wife Saadiya, who had a dispute with Saadma, got upset over her husband sharing food with her sister-in-law and this led to a fight between the three, the officer said.

"A fight erupted between Zeeshan, Saadiya and Saadma. Saadiya started smashing Saadma's head against the wall. She then left from there and called in her brothers who came from Ghaziabad. Her brothers abused all the family members and one of them shot Saadma," he said. Listening to the gunshots, many neighbours gathered at the spot and locked Saadiya's brothers in a room, which led to their arrest. "One of the accused who had a pistol tried to run away and opened fire in the air to create terror, but was overpowered by the local residents," the victim's relative added.
