New Delhi: Nearly 10 days after Tanzil Ahmed was shot dead, his wife Farzana died on Wednesday in Delhi's AIIMS.

Tanzil Ahmed, probing terror cases related to Indian Mujahideen, was shot dead on April 3 by motorcycle-borne assailants who also wounded his wife when they were returning home from a wedding near UP's Bijnor town.

Earlier, on Wednesday, Reyan and Junaid, two of the three killers of NIA officer Tanzil Ahmad, had said that the motive behind the murder was not known to them, but at the same time alleged that Ahmad's behavior towards them was not nice.

Junaid and Reyaan have been placed in UP police custody for the murder of NIA Deputy Superintendent of Police Mohammad Tanzil Ahmed.

The state police had earlier announced a reward of Rs.50,000 to anyone providing information on the whereabouts of the main accused Munir.

Inspector General (Bareilly Zone) Vijay Singh had earlier hinted at revenge and frustration being the motive for the murder of NIA officer Mohammad Tanzil Ahmed.

Singh said that all aspects, including professional and personal rivalry, have been looked into during the probe in connection with the case.
