According to eyewitnesses, when he was walking on the strip between the library and Kennedy Hall, two masked miscreants riding on a scooter reached there. The attackers threatened him with a pistol.

During the incident, Danish was left a few steps behind his companions, taking advantage of which the shooters surrounded him. One attacker said in a very scary tone just before firing the bullet, “You don’t know me yet, now you will.” Immediately after this, two bullets were fired in Danish’s head. He was immediately taken to Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, where doctors declared him dead.

Questions raised on security amid CM’s security claims

The massacre has also become politically sensitive as the incident occurred just hours after Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath claimed in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly about better law and order and a safe environment in the state. The Chief Minister had said in the House that today every person is feeling safe and due to this security investment is coming. However, this murder within a high-profile campus like AMU has exposed the security claims. AMU Proctor Mohammad Wasim Ali confirmed the incident and called it very sad.
