MUMBAI
The victim, believed to be a big player in the diesel mafia, had sustained a bullet injury on his head.
The 55-year-old man who was allegedly shot at by two unidentified persons outside General Post Office at Fort on Wednesday, succumbed to his injuries on Thursday. The victim, believed to be a big player in the diesel mafia, had sustained a bullet injury on his head.
The deceased, identified as Sayyed Ali Madar alias Chand, was a Dongri resident. According to the police, the incident occurred around 3.30pm, when Chand was near Manama Hotel at P D’Mello Road. The pillion rider on a Pulsar motorcycle took out a firearm and shot one bullet at point-blank range at Chand, hitting the right side of his head.
The assailants sped away soon and the police was informed about the incident. Chand was rushed to a nearby hospital in a critical state. “At the time of the incident, he was out for lunch and was returning to his office. Although witnesses claimed they heard two gun shots, only one empty shell has been recovered from the spot,” a police official said.
“We are working on many leads, including personal and business enmity. Going by the manner in which the killing was executed, the people involved are believed to be professional. The supari killing angle can’t be ruled out,” said joint commissioner of police, crime, Himanshu Roy.
Chand was arrested in a Cofeposa case in 2005-06 by the Mumbai Crime Branch and is alleged to be a member of the diesel mafia.
