Summary:
Shahjahanpur: Former national shooting champion Dilip Ayachi, who has got trapped in the Jyoti Randhawa poaching case, has said that under Arms Act 2016, he was authorised to lend his firearms or accessories to another 'recognised' shooter. There are several clubs and individuals who lend fire arms to shooters for participating in events worldwide. His weapon was misused and this fact cannot be ignored.”Ace golfer Jyoti Randhawa and Mahesh Birajdar were caught inside Katraniaghat wildlife sanctuary of Dudhwa Tiger Reserve on December 26. Forest department cannot frame me in this case because I followed a practice that is authorised by the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) and are mentioned clearly in the Arms Act 2016. I have been supporting several rising shooters so that they can win medals for India, but now I am in complete disarray with recent developments..
