The motive of the crime was strained relations between both NRI families. The grievously wounded NRI was stated to be out of danger.<br \/>\nCommissioner of Police Ranjit Singh Dhillon told the media here that four members of a family, belonging to the victim\u2019s previous wife\u2019s family, settled in the US allegedly hired the killers by offering them a \u2018supari\u2019 to kill the visiting NRI, Sukhchain Singh.<br \/>\n\u201cIt\u2019s a dispute between two families, both settled in America. Owing to revenge, one family hired assailants by giving them \u2018suprai\u2019 and sent them to the other\u2019s house. We are very close to arresting them (assailants). The case has been solved. It is a matter of time that both assailants will be arrested. They arranged funds (from outside the country) to commit the crime,\u201d he said.<br \/>\n\u201cThe NRI family knew that this man is currently here (in India). We have arrested five people,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nBesides the victim\u2019s previous father-in-law, who is based in Punjab\u2019s Hoshiarpur district, the police also arrested a manager of the hotel located in Amritsar for giving lodging to the assailants before and after the crime.<br \/>\nThe police also traced the trail of money transferred after the crime. \u201cOther people linked to the crime would be soon arrested,\u201d Dhillon added.<br \/>\nTwo motorcycle-borne assailants barged into the house of 43-year-old NRI, Sukhchain Singh, in Daburji village and shot at him on Saturday morning in front of his elderly mother, wife and two children from his previous wife, leaving him grievously wounded.One bullet pierced into his head bypassing the brain and the other hit his arm. According to the police, one of the attackers\u2019 weapons jammed and could not fire more.<br \/>\nSukhchain Singh, a US resident who came here 25 days back, was shot in the head and arm by the two assailants in front of his family, including children, who could be seen in CCTV footage pleading not to harm their father with folded hands. He was immediately rushed to a private hospital in Amritsar with critical bullet injuries.In the CCTV footage, the miscreants, who came on a motorcycle and did not wear masks, are seen entering the house in the morning. Singh\u2019s children were playing inside the house at the time. One of the armed assailants is seen approaching the NRI and asking him to enter a bedroom at gunpoint. As he resisted, both assailants fired at him from close range.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21852\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21852\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption
