New Delhi-Feb ;3; AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi’s MP vehicle was today fired at by unknown assailants when the parliamentarian was returning from Uttar Pradesh. The incident occurred when Owaisi was on his way to Delhi from Kithaur, Meerut. The MP tweeted that four rounds of bullets were fired targeting his vehicle, leading to the puncture of the tyres. He had to then continue his journey in another vehicle.

The assailants, numbering 3-4, fled immediately after the incident leaving the weapons, the Lok Sabha MP from Hyderabad said, adding “we are all safe”. Owaisi also tweeted a picture of the vehicle that bore two bullet marks.

Speaking to ANI after the incident, Owaisi said that police have arrested one of the shooters and recovered the weapons.
