A BJP worker was allegedly hacked to death in Saganur village of Afzalpur taluk in Kalaburagi district late Thursday night.
The deceased, identified as Girish Babu Chakri, was an aide and supporter of Kalaburagi MP Umesh Jadhav.
According to the police, the victim was appointed as the district BSNL Advisory Committee member recently, following which his friends had thrown a party on their private agricultural land. The assailants hacked him to death after throwing chilli powder into his eyes. Prima facie, personal enmity seems the motive behind the murder. However the exact reason behind brutal killing is yet to be established.
