The murder came to notice when 24-year-old Shamsher, who had gone out last night, did not return to his home, they said.
Shamsher, who was out on bail for past two months, was also an accused in a number of other cases including robbery and loot, police said.
Police have recovered three cartridges from the spot and a case into the matter has been registered against the unidentified assailants, they said.
