this is the matter
Rahul Gond, a resident of Piaprauli Baragaon, runs a medical store near Seer CHC. Like every day, he was going home after closing the medical store at 10 pm on Wednesday night. As he was getting down the canal, three miscreants on a bike came from behind and started abusing him and opened fire. Seeing this, Rahul took the bike down the road, after going into the ditch, the miscreants fired a second round too, but he narrowly escaped.
While fleeing, Rahul’s bike went out of control and overturned, due to which he suffered a back injury. Hearing the bullet sound, people from the vicinity rushed to Rahul’s side. They informed his family and sent Rahul to the district hospital for treatment.
Rahul said that due to darkness he could not identify the miscreants, but he suspects that the chairman, a journalist from a daily newspaper and the medical director are behind the attack. He urged the police to investigate the matter and take strict action against the accused.
