SP Worker Held After Two Persons Were Shot In Allahabad

A minor quarrel on Thursday evening led to the killing of two persons, including an Army jawan. An angry mob blocked traffic and stoned vehicles and police arrested a Samajwadi Party worker Mohit Yadav in this connection.

Those killed in the firing included Army jawan Rahul Verma, who had come home to celebrate Holi, and a 22-year-old college student Chandan Singh.

The two were celebrating Holi on the roadside in Naini, when a speeding motorbike rammed into the crowd injuring several people. As Rahul and Chandan caught hold of the biker and pillion riders, one of them whipped out a pistol and fired at both killing them on the spot.
