A gym trainer famous for his posts on Tik Tok was gunned down by three men at a shop in Delhi’s Najafgarh.
Delhi: A Tik Tok celebrity with over 5.17 lakh followers on Tik Tok and 3000 followers on Instagram was shot dead by three men on Tuesday evening.
The deceased has been identified as 27-year-old Mohit Mor. He hailed from Bahadurgarh in Haryana but lived in Najafgarh.
Mohit Mor had gone to a photocopy store in Najafgarh’s Dharampura at 6 pm on Tuesday to meet a friend. When he was speaking with his friend inside the shop, three men armed with weapons barged in and fired 13 bullets at him, out of which 7 pierced his body.
Mohit fell on a sofa that lay beside. He was then rushed to a nearby hospital where he was declared ‘brought dead’.
The three assailants were caught leaving the shop after the incident, on CCTV. The footage showed the three of them running away from the scene of crime after the murder. Two of them were seen wearing helmets, while the third one was unmasked.
The murder was linked to the shootout in Dwarka Mor on Sunday that saw two criminals shot. However, investigators revealed that Mohit Mor was not involved in any gang and had no criminal record.
The police have also retrieved CCTV footage of the vehicle in which the three men arrived. They are trying to ascertain the registration number of the moped and are investigating if it was stolen.
Police are probing the possibility of personal enmity and money dispute as motives for the murder.
Though the assailants were caught on CCTV camera while fleeing the crime scene, none of them have been identified so far.
Mohit is survived by his mother and sister.
