By IANS,

Ghaziabad : An educationist who ran a college was shot dead Tuesday morning at his residence in Modi Nagar town in Uttar Pradesh’s Ghaziabad district.

The police said Shyam Sunder Goel, who runs Astha Institute at Sikri-Kalan, was alone in his Krishna Nagar house when the assailants barged in and shot him dead. He sustained two gunshot injuries on his chest.

The incident came to light when his wife returned from her brother-in-law’s house at 9.30 a.m. and found Goel lying in a pool of blood. She informed the police who have sent the body for autopsy.

“We have registered the case and are investigating it from all possible angles including property related disputes. A man is being interrogated and we’ll soon reach a break-through,” said Superintendent of Police (Rural) K.K. Asthana.
