Man Hacked to Death in Bengaluru; Police Investigate Possible Family-Linked Motive
A 35-year-old man named Suhail was fatally attacked with swords by four men on motorcycles near Bengaluru's Madiwala underpass during a traffic jam. Police suspect the killing is linked to a previous murder involving Suhail's brothers, who have alleged criminal connections, though Suhail had no criminal record. Authorities have formed special teams to investigate and are actively searching for the suspects. The motive appears related to enmity involving Suhail's family, but details remain under investigation.
