New Delhi, Oct 27 (PTI) A Delhi court has acquitted a man accused of firing upon police in 2019, saying there were contradictions in the testimony of witnesses and lapses in the investigation that created a "serious doubt" on the prosecution's case.

Principal District and Sessions Judge Sukhvinder Kaur was hearing the case against the accused, Sameer alias Mustkeem, 31, who was booked by the Shastri Park police station for various offences, including attempt to murder, assaulting or using criminal force against a public servant and possessing illegal firearms.

The prosecution had alleged that Sameer fired upon an assistant sub-inspector (ASI) and others when the police officials tried to apprehend him while he was attempting to break into some shops in a DDA market on August 25, 2019.
