A history-sheeter was hacked to death by his associates over a petty issue at a bar in Chandra Layout on Saturday night.
The victim, Aruna, 26, is a resident of BCC Layout, Chandra Layout. According to police, Aruna and his associates had gone to a bar in Gangondanahalli. The victim asked his associates to pay the bill for Rs 5,000. They, however, refused to do so, leading to an argument between him and the suspects.
They dragged him into the kitchen, attacked him with a chair and a ladle. They repeatedly crushed his head against a gas cylinder. Aruna died from the massive injuries. The suspects absconded after the murder.
There are definite leads about the suspects and they will be arrested soon, police said.
