According to a Dynamite News correspondent, Bihar's famous businessman Gopal Khemka was shot dead in Patna late on Friday night. This sensational incident happened when Khemka was getting down from the car at the gate of his apartment. The criminals who were lying in ambush killed him by firing bullets. This murder was similar to the murder of his son Gunjan Khemka seven years ago. This double murder has spread panic in the business and social circles of Bihar.

Son was murdered seven years ago

Gopal Khemka was one of the big businessmen of Bihar. His cotton factory was also in Hajipur, where his only son, Gunjan Khemka, was murdered in 2018. That incident had shaken the Khemka family, and now the murder of Gopal Khemka has reopened old wounds. Seven years ago, in 2018, Gunjan Khemka was murdered at the gate of Gopal Khemka's cotton factory in the Industrial Police Station area of ​​Hajipur.

According to the information, at that time Gunjan had reached the factory in his car. Her driver, Manoj Ravidas, had said that at around 12 noon, as soon as the guard opened the gate, the bike-borne assailants fired bullets from the car window. Despite the glass of Gunjan's car being rolled up, she was hit by several bullets in her head and chest. The killers fled brandishing pistols.

This murder shook not only the Khemka family but also the entire Hajipur. After Gunjan's death, Gopal Khemka went into a deep shock. He was trying to recover from this grief, but his murder in Patna on Friday night plunged his family into deep grief again.
