While Hasam alias Kada was injured, his son Ishaq alias Asif died from his injuries during the shootout with police.

He said that there was information about a truck too – allegedly transporting cattle illegally – though it was not found. The SP said that all four are history-sheeters and 'three of them – Hasam, Qasam and Saddam – had a reward on their head and all of them have at least 15 police cases against them, including for cattle smuggling, Arms Act, etc.' Hasam, who had a reward of Rs 45,000 on his head, also has a murder case against him. Meena said that when police traced them, all four, who were on two motorcycles, started firing at the police. In the shootout that took place at Pahari police station limits, while Hasam and his son Ishaq were injured, the other two managed to escape towards Haryana. 'The two injured were taken to Pahari and then to Bharatpur where one was declared dead,' the SP said. 'Two-three' police personnel also sustained bullets on their bulletproof jackets, while the police vehicle was also hit by bullets, he said, adding that the police was prepared since the smugglers are notorious and known for firing at police. The police also recovered two weapons and ammunition from the spot and the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) is also investigating the case, he said.
