The murder of Patna businessman Gopal Khemka has shocked the state capital, leading to a police crackdown and a raid at Beur Central Jail. Investigators are looking into possible links between Khemka's killing and inmates at the jail.

Khemka, a well-known industrialist in Bihar, was shot dead outside his residence. This incident has raised suspicions of organized crime involvement due to a previous tragedy in the family.

A raid at Beur Central Jail was conducted following the murder, with police recovering items that may provide crucial leads. An SIT has been formed to investigate the case and make arrests.

The police are analyzing CCTV footage and following leads to identify the perpetrators. The family, well-known in Patna's business circles, has faced tragedy before, and the recent incident has raised concerns of a larger conspiracy.

CM Nitish Kumar has called for strict action, and the police are working diligently to solve the case and bring the culprits to justice.
