“Ever since the enmity, Golu had been trying to attack Rabi. On Sunday midnight, while the victim came out of his house to relieve himself, Golu, who was keeping watch on his target, stealthy fired a shot at the victim, causing him to sustain an injury in the back, ” said Lunayat while talking to the newsmen today.

The City SP pointed out during interrogation that it came to the fore that Golu was not alone and, instead, two more youths were also with him when Rabi was attacked.

The senior police officer pointed out that a special team was set up to detect the case and tried to arrest the remaining two accused.
