Asansol Shopkeeper Dies From Fall After Being Fired Upon by Assailants
A shopkeeper, Mohammed Sarfuddin (35), died in Asansol, West Bengal, after being attacked by two bike-borne assailants while heading for morning prayers early Saturday. Though the bullet did not strike him, he fell in panic, sustaining a severe nose injury that led to excessive bleeding and his eventual death at the hospital. The incident occurred in the Karim Dangal area of Burnpur under Hirapur police station. Police recovered a pistol and an empty shell from the scene, which the assailants left behind. Investigators are examining CCTV footage and awaiting the post-mortem report to determine the exact cause of death, while also probing potential personal or business rivalries. Family members deny any disputes, describing Sarfuddin as a quiet individual.
