Youth Shot Dead by Friend on Moving Motorcycle
A 21-year-old man named Ikhlas, also called Tashi, was killed in Bhopal.
He was riding on a motorcycle with two other youths.
Police say his friend Aleem shot him while they were moving.
The motorcycle then crashed on the road.
Tashi died at the spot.
Aleem allegedly forced the motorcycle rider to continue before running away.
Police later learned that the two friends had fought about a woman around 15 days earlier.
Police are searching for Aleem and investigating whether that old argument led to the killing.
