The boy was rushed to a trauma centre, where he was declared dead.

Prima facie, police said this appeared to be a case of either mistaken identity or some family animosity. The 14-year-old Maaz lived with his two brothers, Faizan and Arzaan, at the house of his aunt Husna Bano at Faridinagar in Indiranagar. He was watching TV with the family when the gunmen knocked at the door.
