He was a resident of
Jammu division of
Jammu and Kashmir. He left for
Delhi on September 1 for Canada scheduled on 3 September, however he went missing on 2 September, a day before he was scheduled to leave for Canada following the birth of his granddaughter. After his family lost contact with him, they filed a mission report with the
Jammu and Kashmir Police, and the police subsequently established contact with
Delhi Police to trace Wazir. A partial investigation indicated that his driver Harmeet Singh and his alleged associate Harpreet Singh went missing soon after decomposed body of Wazir was recovered in a flat at
Moti Nagar where he stayed during those days.
Background The police transferred the case to Crime Branch, Delhi for further investigations. During the later
criminal investigation, Crime Branch arrested two accused, Rajender Chaudhary alias Raju Ganja, and Balbir Singh alias Billa, while Harpreet is one associate of Raju. Harpreet claimed to be a journalist and was associated with Wazir over the past year. According to partial investigation, his murder is linked to an incident that killed three people with
sword, including one Kuldeep alias Pappi, maternal uncle of Harpreet. The incident took place around 1983 in Jammu. Wazir was sentenced to three years and six months in that incident. To gain revenge for Harpreet's maternal uncle's killing, Harpreet planned his alleged murder by
offering a job to Wazir's driver and asked him to travel by road on September 3 and Harpreet allegedly shot dead Wazir after giving him
sedative with food. His murder was originally planned by accused in July. == References ==
