The incident took place at 6 pm when Maan was coming out of his restaurant along with three of his friends, they said.

He was sitting next to the driver in his car, when a Baleno car came and intercepted them, police said. Some assailant from the car fired on him.

Mann was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was declared brought dead, Rajneesh Gupta, the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Rohini), said.

A case has been registered but the accused are yet to be arrested, he said.

Maan had recently opened the restaurant in partnership with a friend. He himself had two cases registered against him including that of an attempt to murder, police said, adding further probe is underway.

In another case, a 35-year-old man was shot dead by unidentified persons in the Jhilmil Industrial area of Shadara.

The deceased has been identified as Hariom Sharma, a resident of Gokulpuri, they said.

Investigations revealed that Sharma was a supervisor in a factory at friends colony, police said.

Police are examining CCTV footage to identify the accused and ascertain the exact sequence of event, a senior police officer said.
