The incident occurred last night when Sifat Ullah, who works as manager with a Delhi-based bank, was going from Delhi to his house in Judge Colony in Vaishali area of Ghaziabad, they said.
"When he reached Vaishali, two bike-borne armed assailants waylaid his car and put gun on his head. Thereafter, accused asked him to get off the car," a senior police officer said.
When he resisted their robbery attempt, one of accused suddenly opened fire at him and fled, he said.
