PATNA: Unidentified criminals shot dead a contractor, Shambhu Mishra at Mathia Barwa village under the Uchkagaon police station area in Gopalganj district on Saturday.
The incident took place around 8am when Mishra was practising yoga on the premises of a community hall at the village. Two youths riding a motorbike reached the spot and fired at 52-year-old Mishra from close range.
The assailants, who were in the age group of 18-20 years, drove towards Barosara after committing the crime.
