Incident Details

• Victims: Brigadier Parminder Singh Arora (53) and his son Tejas Arora (23), an IIT graduate.
• The Conflict: The assault occurred on the night of April 11, 2026, after the officer and his son objected to two individuals consuming alcohol in a luxury car parked outside their home.

LG’s Intervention and Investigation

• Security Directive: LG Sandhu expressed deep concern and personally spoke with Brigadier Arora to enquire about his well-being. He subsequently directed the Police Commissioner and the DCP to provide full security cover for the family.
• Police Inaction: The intervention followed reports of a 45-hour delay in filing an FIR and allegations that a nearby PCR van failed to intervene during the attack. One police inspector has since been sent to district lines for lapses in the investigation.
• Arrests Made: Two individuals, identified as Satender (alias Sonu) and Sanjay Sharma, have been apprehended. One of the suspects is reportedly a director of a charter aviation firm.
• Army Support: The Indian Army has also deployed a Military Police team to assist the officer and is working with civil authorities for an expeditious probe. Instagram +6
