A 24-year-old showroom manager was stabbed to death in Hansi town on Saturday night after he was allegedly lured outside his workplace by a group of youths.
The deceased has been identified as Suraj Jain. According to the police, the assailants called him outside a showroom in the market on the pretext of having a conversation. During the interaction, one of the accused allegedly attacked him with a knife. Suraj was rushed to a nearby hospital, where doctors declared him dead.
Police officials said CCTV footage from the area captured the sequence of events leading up to the murder. The footage purportedly shows one of the accused asking Suraj for a cigarette shortly before the attack. Minutes later, the same individual allegedly stabbed him.
The police have registered a case against Sahil Bamal, a resident of Hisar, and three of his associates. Efforts are underway to arrest all four accused, police said. Preliminary investigations indicate that a relationship involving the victim and a woman could have been the motive behind the murder.
