Sunil Kapoor, sought for multiple fraud and forgery charges in Haryana, reportedly took his own life amid a police standoff in Dehradun on Sunday.
According to Ajay Singh, the Dehradun Senior Superintendent of Police, the incident began when a joint police team from Dehradun, Haridwar, and Haryana's Jind district conducted a raid at a house in Laxman Chowk. Kapoor, 36, was believed to be hiding at a relative's house when officers urged him to surrender. Instead, Kapoor allegedly turned his licensed revolver on himself.
Earlier, on Saturday, Kapoor allegedly attacked and seriously injured police sub-inspector Surendra in Haridwar before escaping. The fugitive had a history of charges, including extortion, defamation, fraud, forgery, and producing fake documents, all registered in Jind.
