Police are yet to make any arrest in the killing of a 32-year-old e-rickshaw driver after he objected to two men urinating outside the GTB Nagar Metro Station on Saturday.
The police is now blaming the defunct CCTVs in the area for the delay. According to the reports, they are unable to gather enough evidence on the dozen men allegedly involved in the murder as all the 8 CCTVs installed nearby do not function and hence, no footage could be found, reports the Times Of India.
Around 50 cameras had been installed in GTB Nagar, 16 of them close to the place where this incident took place. But with only a handful working now, the cops will need to rely on the footage from a nearby liquor shop, the report adds.
