A 55-year-old man, who was an eye-witness in his son's murder case, was allegedly shot dead on last Saturday by three bike-borne assailants in Shamli district, three days before he was to record his statement in a court in connection with the case, police said.
A case has been registered against three persons- Sachin, Deepak and Pankaj. Sachin and Deepak were also accused in the deceased's son's murder.
The accused Sachin and Deepak were threatening him to withdraw the case.
