Lucknow: The maternal uncle of Dr Kafeel Khan, Nusrullah Ahmad Warsi, was shot dead by unidentified miscreants inside his house in Gorakhpur on the intervening night of Saturday and Sunday.

The incident occurred in Gorakhpur's Bankat Chukk under Rajghat Police Station, where Khan's maternal uncle (maama) lived with his family. According to police, some unidentified miscreants barged into his house and shot him dead. An angle of property dispute and money-related argument is suspected at the moment, an officer, who visited the murder site along with crime branch sleuths, said.

A case has also been registered against two people, Anil Sonkar and Imamuddin, after a written complaint was given to police by the family of the deceased. Police said that the body has been sent for post-mortem.

He was arrested on January 29 from Mumbai after an FIR, but was granted a bail also but soon after Khan was charged under NSA.
