A bank officer was shot dead today by three bike-borne miscreants in Bihar's Jehanabad district, police said.

Alok Chandra, a probationary officer with Bank of Baroda in Arwal, was on his way to office from Jehanabad on a motorcycle when the miscreants intercepted his vehicle near Nehalpur diversion in Parasbigaha police station area and pumped three bullets into him, Station House Officer Aman Anand said.
