Lucknow, Jun 10: Kashif Jameel, younger brother of Uttar Pradesh’s popular pediatrician Dr Kafeel Khan, was shot at in Gorakhpur by unidentified miscreants on Sunday night.

Jameel, 34, is currently admitted to Star private hospital in Gorakhpur. He sustained three bullet shots--one each on his upper arm, neck and chin.

The shooting took place when Jameel was returning home. Two unidentified attackers, who were chasing him, sprayed him with bullets when he was near Gorakhnath temple, sources said.

"My brother has been shot. I always knew they would try to kill us," said Dr Kafeel Khan, who was with his brother in the hospital, taking him for a CT scan. 

Their brother in law, Samar Khan said, "As of now, we have very little information ourselves. He was on his motorbike when he was shot at."

Dr Kafeel Khan, who shot to fame after the Gorakhpur’s government run BRD medical tragedy when he arranged for oxygen cylinders for children dying in the encephalitis ward with the disruption in oxygen supply last year, was soon made a villain by the Yogi Adityanath led BJP government of Uttar Pradesh and booked as one of the accused in the case.

He was sent to jail in September 2017 and has been released on bail by the high court only recently in April, after the court found no evidence to prove medical negligence on part of Dr Kafeel Khan in dispelling his duties to save the children.

He had recently volunteered to serve in the Nipah virus hit Kerala and was invited by the chief minister of Kerala to offer his services. This was later turned down, just when Dr Kafeel Khan was about to board the flight to Kerala, with some doctors in Kerala opposing Dr Kafeel Khan’s intervention.

Bellari, Feb 23: Fringe outfit Sri Ram Sena leader Sanjeev Maradi said on Friday said that organization will reward Rs 10 lakh to the person who will 'eliminate' those who have raised "pro-Pakistan" slogans including Amulya who recently raised "Pakistan Zindabad" slogan at an anti-CAA protest in Bengaluru.

"We request both state and central government not to release them (Pro-Pakistan sloganeers) on bail. If they will be released Sri Ram Sena will eliminate them or will give a reward of Rupees 10 lakh to those who kill them," said Sanjeev Maradi.

"We condemn such slogans. This is like a virus. First, it happened in Jammu and Kashmir, then in JNU, then Mysore and then a student named Amulya raised pro Pakistan slogan in Bengaluru," he added.

A girl named Amulya raised 'Pakistan Zindabad' slogan on Thursday at an anti-CAA protest where AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi was also invited.

Thereafter, a case was registered under Section 124A (Offence of sedition) of the Indian Penal Code against the student.

Meanwhile, Imran Pasha, the organizer of the anti-CAA protest said that Amulya was not invited to the event.

"We were the organizers of the event. At around 6:45 pm on Thursday, when I and Member of Parliament Asaduddin Owaisi were entering the stage area, we did not notice Amulya was present there. I did not invite her," Pasha told media.
