Hyderabad Youth Murder: Man Killed by Friends

Hyderabad Youth Murder: 21-Year-Old Beaten by Friends Dies in Hospital

In a shocking case of violence, a 21-year-old man, P. Praneeth, died after being brutally attacked by his friends in Jawaharnagar, Hyderabad.

Praneeth and Govardhan (27), both residents of Bhagat Singh Colony in Yapral, were known to be friends. However, tensions arose recently when Govardhan suspected that Praneeth was spreading rumors about him being involved in drug dealing.

On April 5, Govardhan, along with a few others, lured Praneeth out under the pretext of a conversation. The group then attacked him, causing severe injuries. Praneeth was first taken to a private hospital nearby, but his condition worsened.

He was later shifted to Gandhi Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries on Tuesday morning.

The Jawaharnagar police have registered a case and are investigating the Hyderabad youth murder incident.
