A property dealer was shot dead outside a bar in Mira-Bhayander Road in a firing incident last night that also resulted in the death of his friend. Police suspect the attack may have been caused by professional rivalry.

Two assailants on motorbikes opened four rounds of fire on Vijay Pradhan and his friends. The assailants fired at their car (top right) as well, when the victims attempted to escape in it. PicS/Azim Tamboli
