Chandigarh, August 28, 2013: In a shocking instance, an assistant sub-inspector of Haryana Police allegedly opened fire at a doctor, who escaped unhurt, when he refused to issue a fake medical report in favour of the cop’s relative.

The incident took place in the early hours of Wednesday when SI Kashmir Singh, allegedly in an inebriated state arrived at the Karnal civil hospital, about 130 kilometres from Karnal, with his relative.
