History-sheeter Sandeep Solanki survives shooting in Kota over old rivalry
Rahul Sindhi and five or six miscreants allegedly opened fire near a Shiva temple in the Kaithoonipol police station area.
History-sheeter Sandeep Solanki narrowly escaped being hit by gunfire on Saturday evening near a Shiva temple in the Kaithoonipol police station area of Kota, according to Bhaskar English.
ASI Girraj Prasad Arya said Solanki was sitting on a water tank near his liquor shop when five to six miscreants arrived on motorcycles. The group allegedly fired two shots, with one misfiring and the other striking a wall before grazing the right leg of Solanki's cousin, Kuldeep Singh.
DSP Rudra Pratap Sharma stated that Rahul Sindhi, who is also a history-sheeter at the Kaithoonipol police station, opened fire. Police said Solanki and Sindhi have an old dispute regarding the liquor business.
Solanki was taken to MBS Hospital where it was found he had suffered only minor scratches. He had previously been attacked and shot at on 2 October 2025.
The police are currently examining CCTV footage from the scene. Teams have been formed to search for the accused following a report from the complainant.
