Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and Businessman Gopal Khemka was shot dead by a bike-borne unidentified man in Bihar’s capital on Friday, police said. His son, Gunjan Khemka, was murdered in a similar way six years back.
Police said that Khemka had returned to his Ramgulam Chowk home from Bankipur Club around 11 pm. “As soon as he alighted from his vehicle, an assailant fired at him from point-blank range and the bike-borne assailant managed to flee. He was immediately rushed to a private hospital where the doctor declared him brought dead,” a police officer said.
Bihar's director general of police (DGP) Binay Kumar has directed the Special Task Force (STF) and Criminal Investigation Department (CID) to assist Patna police, the officer added.
“Multiple rounds of bullets of 9mm bore were fired when the victims were still inside the car. Raids are being conducted to nab the killer. The reason behind the murder is not clear. A special investigation team (SIT) has been formed to probe the case,” city superintendent of police (SP) said.
