Ahamd Khan, a Muslim folk singer was Murdered by temple Pirest RAMESH SUTHAR in Dantal Village of Rajasthan. The priest Ramesh accused Ahmed Khan of not singing well in the temple, and (Ramesh) failed to possess his god and harness supernatural power.

Hope Ustad Zakir Hussain will not meat the fate of Ahmed Khan, if Pejawar Seer or his devotees fail to impress their diety in Udupi for the fault of Zakir's finger on Tabala.
