Hyderabad: A man beat a passerby to death on Saturday, November 16 in Telangana’s Nalgonda district for not giving money.

According to the police, the victim was identified as Majjiga Yadagiri was going to the farm on a bicycle in the afternoon. Vadlakonda Nagaraju, an old criminal from the same village, went that way. The two faced each other. Nagaraj asked Yadagiri for money.
Yadagiri said he didn’t have it. Enraged by this, Nagaraj attacked him severely with a stick. Yadagiri died on the spot due to profuse bleeding. Nagaraju, who tried to escape after the attack, was caught by the locals and handed over to the police.
The police team was alerted regarding the incident and the stick used by the accused was seized.
Locals told the police that Nagaraju was jailed in the past for setting fire to someone’s house by pouring kerosene and was released from jail recently due to improved behaviour.
