Police recovered empty cartridges from the spot on Sunday and detained several suspects for questioning. Shobhana Shukla said she bought the plot on Adhauri Bypass in 2018 for about Rs 1.5 crore. She alleged 24-25 people arrived in a vehicle, abused her, and opened fire. Bajpai's side claims ownership through a 2022 sale deed. Maholi Circle Officer Nagendra Choubey said a written complaint has been filed and a case will be registered.
