A man in Aligarh standing near his house, waiting to have ‘sehri’ (the pre-dawn meal consumed by Muslims before fasting for Ramzan), was gunned down by four men on Friday. According to NDTV, one of the attackers shot the man several times, after which he fell, and another then got off the bike and pumped three more bullets into him so that he is dead.

The CCTV footage, according to the report, shows that Haris, alias Katta, who had returned after playing a cricket match, was waiting to have ‘sehri,’ and he was standing on the road with another man around 3.15 am. 

As Harish saw the two bikes pulling up next to him, he tried to shield himself when he found the pillion ride of the bike closest to him pointing a gun, but he was shot once while the bike was still in motion.

According to NDTV, the pillion rider shoots Haris twice more, after which he falls, and the man who was with him makes a run for it. The first shooter pumps another bullet into the fallen Haris and then climbs back onto the motorcycle.

Meanwhile, the pillion rider of the bike gets off and walks towards Haris. He tries to shoot the fallen man and realises that he has forgotten to cock the gun. He then fired three bullets at Haris, climbed on the bike, and both two-wheelers left. 

According to the video, Haris could be seen lying on the road and a man chasing after the bikes.

According to NDTV, the police officials said that the attack was probably the result of an enmity, but other angles are also being investigated.
