According to the reports, the woman and the accused man knew each other and had a conflict over financial issues. The accused has been identified by the police and is said to be a local history sheeter. The woman who has been shot meanwhile has attained severe injuries in her stomach.

On September 24 of last year, a similar incident was reported in which two assassins had dressed as attorneys and had opened fire inside the Rohini court in Delhi. The duo were however killed in Police firing. The two attackers, Rahul Tyagi and Jagdeep Jagga, reportedly pretended to be attorneys in order to enter the courtroom and shot mobster Jitender Maan alias Gogi many times.

Also, the Rohini court witnessed gunfire in April of last year after an altercation between two solicitors and their only client. In the current case, the police have been deployed at the Saket court and the investigations in the case are underway.
