Gurgaon: Shivam (22), the lone surviving shooter involved in Thursday night’s gunfight in Sushant Lok, is expected to become the most crucial witness in unravelling the conspiracy behind the failed contract killing and the gang’s wider network.Sources said Shivam, a resident of Nuh, has been shifted out of intensive care after undergoing surgery for a bullet injury to his abdomen. Doctors have declared him fit to give a statement, paving the way for police to begin questioning him.Police believe Shivam could provide vital leads on who planned the operation, how the shooters travelled to Gurgaon, where they collected the weapons recovered after the encounter, and the communication chain within the Deepak Nandal gang.Officials are also hoping his statement will help identify those who arranged logistics, weapons and shelter for the shooters before the planned attack on the businessman’s house over an alleged Rs 10-crore extortion demand. Police are conducting raids to trace a resident of Bahadurgarh who is suspected of providing logistical support.
