Atiq murder case: ‘Shooters must have fired hundreds of rounds to practise’
Hindustan TimesKANPUR The precision with which the three shooters cut into the security cordon and took out Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf can only come with rigorous practise, say experts. Retired inspector-general Vijay Shankar Singh feels that the three shooters must have trained for at least a month given the way they handled weapons and fired at Atiq and Ashraf. Just see how one of them approached Atiq and shot him in the temple point blank, then the next fired two shots from the other side, piercing into the heart and neck of Ashraf.” In a similar vein, Ajay Wig, who has been a national-level shooter, said that the hands of the three shooters were steady and they did not use their second hand to support the other one. Echoing Wig’s opinion, Varun Mehrotra, who has coached a number of shooters at Kanpur Rifle Club, said “This level of one-hand firing was not possible without undergoing rigorous training.
