Ramesh was heading back to his rented accommodation at Jagdambe Colony, when the incident took place. The accused decamped with his jacket and cash.

Family members of the deceased on Tuesday held a demonstration outside Sadar police station as cops delayed registering an FIR.

Pritam Singh, a relative of the deceased, said earlier too miscreants had robbed Ramesh. Yesterday, he was attacked and murdered with sharp-edged weapons.
