Extortionists in Bihar kill Kargil warrior

He survived freezing heights and enemy's bullets at Kargil, but was felled by an extortionist at his own village and among his own men.

Shanker Kumar, an army jawan who was on leave at his native Kemra village in Bihar's Sheikhpura district, was shot dead on Monday when he raised his voice against some goons who were extorting money from vendors, Superintendent of Police Sohaib Khan said.

Thousands of villagers, who were watching a play being staged on the occasion of Laxmi Puja, looked on helplessly, the SP said, adding Shanker was posted at Srinagar.
