NIA officer shot dead by unknown people

Two unidentified men shot dead a National Investigation Agency official, who was part of several terror probe cases related to Indian Mujahideen, and critically wounded his wife in the wee hours on Sunday when they were returning home from a wedding near this Uttar Pradesh town. The killers pumped as many as 24 bullets into Mohd Tanzil Ahmad and four into his wife Farzana, as their 14-year old daughter and 12-year old son watched the gruesome incident from the back seat of the Wagon-R car they were travelling.
