Around 10 AM on Thursday, four unknown men on two two-wheelers overtook and stopped Shahnawaz, while he was riding to attend his brother-in-law's wedding in Shamli district. They hit him with sticks, stapped him multiple times, and shot him with a pistol, an official said.

Shahnawaz was a resident of Haryana and worked as a furniture artisan. Following the incident, his wife filed a complaint at the Kairana Police Station.
