THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The man who hacked a youth in city have gone underground following the crime. The police have arrested three people in connection with the murder. Barton Hill native S P Anilkumar was hacked to death at Sunday midnight by Jeevan, also a resident at Barton Hill. Museum police have intensified the search for Jeevan and the police have taken Jeevan's brother and his two friends into custody.
The incident happened at 11 pm on Sunday. Jeevan attacked Anil Kumar while he was sitting on his bike on the road from Barton Hill to law college. Anilkumar was hacked on his head for times. He was found by some of his friends and they informed the incident to museum police. Though he was immediately shifted to Medical college, his life could not be saved.
Anilkumar had attacked Jeevan one month ago. There are several criminal cases against both of them. Both of them were members of Gundukad Sabu's quotation team. They parted their ways and Anil Kumar had no association with the quotation gang following that. However, Anil Kumar and Jeevan clashed weeks ago and this led to Anil's murder.
The body was handed over to family members after post mortem. Wife: Seema.
