Lucknow: Two days after a teacher was shot dead on the campus of Uttar Pradesh’s Aligarh Muslim University by unknown miscreants, CCTV footage of the attack surfaced online. The deceased was identified as Rao Danish Ali, a teacher at the ABK School on the university campus.
In the footage, it could be seen that the assailants kept shooting into Ali’s head even after he died. The teacher was on his routine walk with his two colleagues and, when he reportedly reached the canteen near the Maulana Azad Library, the two assailants arrived on a bike and shot him dead.

The incident took place at around 9 pm. Meanwhile, the other two colleagues of the teacher fled from the spot. A total of seven rounds were fired at Ali. Before shooting the teacher, one of the gunmen told him, “You don’t know me yet, now you will,” reported NDTV.
