Hyderabad shocker: 25-year-old man murdered by wife's brothers

In a shocking incident reported from Hyderabad, a 25-year-old man was murdered allegedly by his wife's two brothers for marrying him against the wishes of her family members, police said on Monday.

The horrifying incident took place in Hyderabad’s Langar Houz on Sunday night. CCTV footage of the crime, which was televised by local news channels, purportedly displayed two people chasing a man running on a road as vehicles passed by and later "attacking" him.

The man was attacked with sharp edged weapons, leading to his death, police said. On the basis of a preliminary investigation, a police official said the man was killed allegedly by two brothers of a woman, who had married the victim last year which was opposed by her family members.

The woman, whose engagement was fixed with another person, had left the house last year and had tied the knot with the man, which had angered her brothers, police said.

A case was registered, police added. When asked whether the accused were taken into custody, the official said further investigations into the matter is underway.
