Such incidents were unheard of in the state and it is a matter of grave concern," former Director General of Police (DGP) S C Tripathi said.

These things normally take place in Banda-Kanpur region of Uttar Pradesh, but this a new thing for the state, he said. "It (Shehla's killing) was a well calculated murder in hich first the target was eliminated and later to destroy the vidence, the shooter was gunned down," he said adding though it is a matter of probe that whether he was killed because of gang rivalry, accident or something else.
