Delhi Police stood by and watched as a man brandished a gun at protesters near Jamia Millia Islamia, an eyewitness recounted to The Quint. The armed assailant fired his gun, injuring a first-year Masters student of Mass Communication at the university, Shadab Najar.

Shadab had to be rushed to the Trauma Centre at AIIMS, Delhi. The Quint spoke with Aamna Asif, a third-year Economics (Hons) student at Jamia Millia Islamia, who was with Shadab when this transpired.

Aamna narrated her chilling eyewitness account of Delhi Police’s inaction and how her friend Shadab was shot at by the armed attacker.
