Hyderabad: A 25-year-old electrician was stabbed to death on Monday night in Kondapalli village of Komaram Bheem Asifabad district, Telangana.
Police said the victim, Sridharchari, was attacked around 9 p.m. Investigators suspect the motive was his alleged relationship with a married woman.
According to officers, the woman’s husband, Rajanna, had lodged a complaint against Sridharchari a month ago and warned him to stay away.
Following the murder, Sridharchari’s family members staged a protest outside the woman’s house, demanding strict action against Rajanna. They alleged the victim was killed merely for speaking to her over the phone.
Police said Rajanna has surrendered.
