The right-wing leader of the Rashtriya Rajput Karni Sena, Sukhdev Singh Gogamedi, had tea with the men who killed him at his Jaipur home first. In a terrifying footage of the incident, the accused was seen sitting next to Gogamedi before shooting him, taking him by surprise. He was fired at least five times at close range, the last shot going right through his head.
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.
Unseen in the video, one of the attackers was killed by the crossfire. According to the police, the other two escaped in the motorcycle of two men they had threatened with pistols.
One of the Goldy Brar gang members has taken responsibililty for the killing. “We accept full responsibility for the murder of Sukhdev Gogamedi,” Rohit Godara Kapurisr stated on Facebook. He said the attack was sparked by Gogamedi’s “used to support our enemies.”
The Rajput Karni Sena, which led the demonstrations against the Bollywood film “Padmaavat,” is not the same organization as the one that Mr. Gogamedi led. In 2015, he broke away from the Lokendra Singh Kalvi-led Karni Sena to start his own group.
