He then finally barges into the bank with a gun and a bag in hand. He still appears undecided and seems he is almost leaving but suddenly turns around and opens fire at the back manager who is sitting behind a desktop computer, but he cannot be seen in the footage. However, the manager’s voice can be heard talking to a bank staffer moments before the shooting took place.</p>
<p>
The video has been shared by news agency ANI. Has been shot on a mobile phone recording CCTV footage played on a computer screen.</p>
<p>
The bank manager, Vijay Kumar, was shot dead in the second targeted attack on Hindus in the Valley during the last three days.</p>
<p>
Terrorists attacked Vijay Kumar, manager of Elaqahi Dehati Bank, inside its Areh branch today. He died on the way to the hospital.</p>
<p>
Kumar, a resident of Hanumangarh district in Rajasthan, had recently joined the bank branch in Kulgam.</p>
<p>
Police said the area has been cordoned off and a manhunt has been launched for the terrorists who carried out the attack.</p>
<p>
The attack comes just two days after a Hindu teacher from Jammu, Rajni Bala, was killed by terrorists outside a school in Kulgam.</p>
