The victim, Bikan Kumar, and his uncle were on their way to Aligarh in their car when they were attacked with sticks and sharp objects by eight men who then shot dead the jawan.

The incident took place at Rasoolpur village under the Tappal police limits.

Bikan Kumar's father, Janata Singh, said, "My son and wife of one of the accused were in a relationship. He was killed by her husband, Vijaypal, his brother Bablu and six other members of their family."
