A former model was shot dead in a hotel room in Gurugram months after being granted bail after spending seven years in jail in connection with a Gurugram gangster’s ‘fake’ encounter case in Mumbai, police said on January 3.
They said five people took Divya Pahuja (27) to the hotel room on January 2 night and shot her in the head allegedly because she used to extort money from the hotel-owner by blackmailing him with his “obscene pictures”, a claim denied by her family.
The Gurugram Police said they arrested three of them while they were taking the body to dump somewhere.
