Changing his plan of attending a wedding in the family cost the 30-year-old bar owner his life after he was found dead under mysterious circumstances at the club.

The businessman, identified as Nasir, was one of the joint owners of the Onn Lounge in DT Mall, Shalimar Bagh.

Nasir was partying with his three friends at the bar after which he was found dead. While the cops claim the pistol accidentally fired which led to his death, the deceased's family has alleged that he was murdered by his friends.

The family stated that Nasir was earlier going to attend a wedding but changed his plan last minute and went out with his friends - Shekhar, Deepak, Sandeep. "He had neither a pistol, nor did he ever borrow from anyone. We suspect he was murdered by his friends," said Abaad Khan, Nasir's uncle.

"He would have been alive had he not changed his plan," said Khan.

The police officials, on the other hand, stated that it is either a case of accidental firing or suicide. One of the eyewitnesses at the club told the police that four of them were partying when Nasir whipped out a pistol and placed it on his temple before firing. The footage from the club showed Nasir picking up the gun from a table and pointing it at his head before falling on the floor.

However, the family alleged that they also saw the footage but it was unclear due to dim lights as to who fired and how. "He had gone to the washroom as well as seen in the footage. We suspect the friends first showed him the unloaded pistol and in his absence loaded it again, and pressurised him to fire leading to his death," added Khan.

He had just celebrated his 33rd birthday on March 17. Nasir had started the pub around a year back. Before that, he was running an electrical shop. He is survived by his wife, two kids, including his eight-month-old baby.
