The video of the incident is in wide circulation on social media.

Video shows Arshad talking to a man at the crowded club when Bilal sneaks in and shoots him in the head from a close range.

His three children rushed to him crying as he fell to the ground after being shot by Bilal, the video shows. He was taken to hospital but was declared brought dead by doctors.
