Karni Sena announces statewide protest over Chief’s assassination

The leader of the group is seen in the video glancing at his phone when the men seated near him got up and shot him. The gunmen opened fire on him after seeing one of his guards attempt to stop them.

“They (the attackers) sat with Sukhdev Singh Gogamedi for at least 10 minutes before shooting him.” said police.

The men can be seen firing at Gogamedi repeatedly in the 20-second video, even after he has stopped moving.

Reports state that the incident happened at approximately 12:30 PM today. After being hurt Gogamedi and two of his friends  were taken to a hospital, where the well-known Rajput leader had passed away.
