4 assailants gun down man waiting for 'Sehri' prayers outside home in Aligarh
Aligarh/IBNS: Four men on a motorcycle gunned down a man standing near his house, waiting to have 'sehri' (the pre-dawn meal consumed by Muslims before fasting during the month of Ramzan), in Uttar Pradesh's Aligarh on Friday.

One of the attackers shot the man multiple times, after which he fell, and another then got off the bike and pumped three more bullets into him to make sure he was dead.
CCTV footage from Telipada in Aligarh's Roravar shows Haris alias Katta, who had returned after playing a cricket match and was waiting to have 'sehri'.
He was seen standing on the road near his house with another man around 3.15 am.
The other man then moved to sit on a ledge and Haris could be seen watching two bikes pulling up next to him.
Haris then turned and tried to shield himself on seeing the pillion rider of the bike closest to him pointing a gun but was shot once when the bike was still in motion.
The pillion rider took aim at Haris twice more in quick succession, after which he fell and the man who was with him made a run for it.
The first shooter then pumped another bullet into the fallen Haris and then climbed back onto the motorcycle.
The pillion rider of the other bike, meanwhile, got off and walked towards Haris. He was seen shooting Haris again but then realised he had forgotten to cock the gun.
After doing so, he fired three bullets at Haris, climbed on the bike, and both two-wheelers left. The video ended with Haris lying on the road and a man chasing after the bikes.
According to the police, Haris was probably shot dead as a result of an enmity, but other angles are also being probed.
"We received information about the shooting around 3.30 am. Haris was taken to a hospital immediately, where he died. A case has been registered and investigation is on," NDTV quoted Assistant Superintendent of Police Mayank Pathak as saying.
