A youth traveling to attend his sister’s wedding was shot dead near Karnamepur bus stand in Bihar’s Bhojpur district on Saturday evening, leaving the family in shock and authorities scrambling for answers.
The victim, identified as Raj Singh, was traveling from Ishwarpura village to Bihiya with his uncle on a Bullet motorcycle. The tragic incident occurred under the jurisdiction of the Karnamepur police station.
Raj’s uncle immediately rushed him to a private hospital in Ara, but doctors declared him dead upon arrival.
According to Raj’s uncle, the murder was carried out by his friend, Saket, who was accompanied by four others at the time of the shooting. The uncle alleged that an old school-related dispute between Saket and Raj might have led to the attack.
