Brother of Gorakhpur encephalitis tragedy accused Kafeel Khan shot at

Kashif Jameel, 34, brother of Dr Kafeel Khan, an accused in the BRD Medical College case involving the death of 63 children, was shot at allegedly by some unidentified bike-borne miscreants on Sunday night.

"He is recovering now. A case has not been registered yet as police are waiting for his health to improve so he can tell what actually happened. He was shot just 500 meters away from CM residence, last night," said Dr Kafeel Khan

Dr Kafeel was booked as an accused in the BRD medical college tragedy that took place in Gorakhpur in which several children reportedly died due to a lack of oxygen supply.

He was sent to jail last year in September and is currently out on bail after spending around 8 months in prison.
