The accused, identified as Parmatma, alias Batista, is a banana seller in the same market. The other accused remain unidentified. The 60-year-old victim Mehboob Khan, alias Chacha, alleged that he was forced inside his shop and threatened with a pistol by Batista and by one his unidentified accomplice. Khan in his complaint registered at Sector-26 police station stated that he has been selling papayas at the mandi for over 25 years. He alleged that he was at his SCF Number 5 in the Grain Market with his 37-year-old grandson, Rijwan Khan, when Batista, with his accomplice, approached his shop. He alleged that he was forced by the duo inside the shop. Batista allegedly pulled out a pistol, pointed it at his chest, and demanded Rs.30,000, threatening to shoot if the demand was not met. When Rijwan entered the shop upon hearing the commotion, Batista threatened him too, asking him to tell his grandfather to hand over the money. Khan told the accused he did not have the amount, after which Batista raised the demand to Rs.50,000. Fearing for their lives, Khan and Rijwan handed over the cash. The second accused reportedly told Batista to shoot them if they resisted. The ordeal did not end there. Batista then demanded an additional Rs.20,000, again threatening to kill them if they refused. Under pressure, the victims handed over the money, after which the duo fled, warning them of dire consequences if they informed anyone. Police registered a case under sections 309(4), 311, 351(3), and 3(5) of the BNS against Batista and his unidentified associate....
