Noida, January 19

A 30-year-old crew member of Air India was allegedly shot dead by unidentified bike-borne men near a high-end market in Noida on Friday, the police said.

An official said the murder could be a fallout of a gang rivalry involving the family of the deceased, who has been identified as Suraj Mann.

The incident took place near the Sector 104 market when Mann came out of a gym and sat in his car. The assailants soon arrived at the spot and one of them opened fire in the air while another shot at Mann.

Noida DCP Harish Chander said the Sector 39 police station was alerted about the incident around 2.30 pm and a team was rushed to the crime spot. “The man was taken to a nearby hospital but he did not survive,” Chander said.

Mann, who worked as a crew member with Air India, lived as a tenant in the posh Lotus Panache society nearby, said the police.
