New Delhi/IBNS: A man and his nephew were shot dead as they were celebrating Diwali outside their house in Delhi's Shahdara on Thursday.

The murder was captured on CCTV, which showed the 44-year-old Akash Sharma, his nephew, Rishabh Sharma (16), and son, Krish Sharma (15), bursting firecrackers on the narrow road outside their house.

A teenage boy is then seen coming on a two-wheeler and touching the feet of Sharma, while the shooter stands nearby.

In a matter of seconds, the shooter fired about five bullets at Sharma, killing him and injuring his son.
