CCTV footage showing the four accused running away

According to a police official, Theth, who suffered three bullet injuries, had a rivalry with another gang in the Shekhawati region of the state.

In multiple video footage captured on CCTV cameras, the four accused can be seen shooting at Theth on a street and then running away from the spot, with one of them firing in the air to scare away passers-by and witnesses.

Soon after the murder, a person named Rohit Godara, who introduced himself from Lawrence Bishnoi gang, claimed responsibility on Facebook, saying Theth's murder was the revenge for Anandpal Singh and Balbir Banuda.

Banuda, a gangster who was a member of the Anandpal gang, was killed in a gang war in Bikaner jail in July 2014.

Supporters of Theth have called for a bandh in Sikar and demanded immediate arrest of the killers.
