    A man was killed while another one got injured after an inebriated 27-year-old man opened fire during his cousin's wedding in west Delhi's Nangloi area. The incident took place on December 14.
     
    Dharmenda, son of a retired Delhi Police personnel, entered the function after drinking for several hours. He was accompanied by two others, police said.
