The deceased has been identified as Nagesh (46), a resident of the Light House area and a mason by profession.
Nagesh had developed hatred for his wife Uttam from the past few years, it is said. They would reside in the local Omkareshwari Bhajana Mandir at night. Uttam's younger brother Ajith (25) did not like Nagesh coming to his house and would fight with him on a regular basis.
On Sunday night too, Nagesh went to his wife's house and got into a brawl with Ajith. When things got really heated up, Ajith attacked Nagesh with a cricket bat and other sharp weapons killing him on the spot. Ajith is now absconding.
Mulky police are investigating the case. Cases of smaller magnitude had been booked against Ajith in the past as well, it is learnt. Nagesh's body has been kept at Mulky Government Hospital mortuary.
