Ferozepur, Nov 16: A 32-year-old shopkeeper and son of a local RSS leader was shot dead by two unidentified bike-borne attackers here, police said on Sunday.
The victim has been identified as Naveen Arora (32), whose father Baldev Raj Arora has been associated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) for the past many years. The deceased also served as an RSS volunteer, they said.
The incident occurred on Saturday when Naveen was walking from his shop to his residence near the Sadhu Chand Chowk in the city, police said.
Two unidentified youth arrived on a motorcycle and opened fire at Naveen from point-blank range before fleeing, they said. Naveen was rushed to a private hospital, where he was declared dead on arrival.
Punjab BJP chief Sunil Jakhar on Sunday alleged that Naveen’s murder has once again exposed the AAP government’s failure to maintain law and order in the state. (PTI)
