A 24-year-old worker was beaten to death by his employer in Bengaluru after being caught with the employer's daughter.
What Happened
The incident took place on Tuesday afternoon at a home in Yelahanka. The victim, Kiran, was a 24-year-old native of Keralam who had worked at the accused man's cart-manufacturing unit for several years. Police said the 45-year-old accused, Anandraj, left home with his wife on Tuesday and told his daughter they were going to their native Tamil Nadu and would return by night. Instead, the couple returned within a few hours and found Kiran together with their daughter in a room. A senior police officer stated that preliminary findings show Kiran was in a relationship with the daughter. Anandraj sent the girl to a relative's home before assaulting Kiran, who died from his injuries. Police have arrested Anandraj in connection with the killing.
Context
