Patna : An elderly man and his minor grandson were gunned down in Bihar’s Purnea district, an official said on Tuesday. The incident occurred in the Bikothi locality of Purnea on Monday night. The preliminary investigation revealed that a property dispute could be the reason for the murder.
The deceased were identified as Chaturthi Mandal (65) and his seven-year-old grandson Manish Kumar. The family members of the deceased said they had dinner on Monday night and everyone went to sleep. The two were found dead on Tuesday morning in a room in the house by the family members. The bodies were lying on the bed and blood was all over the place.
