<p>Members of a rival gang killed a man by pushing him from the fourth floor of an under-construction building at Murugeshpalya on Old Airport Road, east Bengaluru, on Monday night. <br /><br /></p>.<p>Nashal Ismail, a native of Mangaluru, was caught in the rivalry between Santhosh and Dhanush, leaders of two small gangs. Ismail had moved to Bengaluru two months ago in search of a job and was staying as a paying guest in Tubarahalli. <br /><br />Dhanush, who is involved in petty crimes, was plotting the murder of his rival, Santhosh. “Ismail was a close associate of Santhosh. The rivalry between the two ended in Ismail’s murder,” a police officer said. <br /><br />Santhosh and his associates had clashed with Dhanush and his gang over a petty issue thrice in the last one month.
