BCom student’s murder: Four, including three juveniles, held over fatal clash

Four, including three juveniles, have been arrested in connection with the murder of a 19-year-old BCom student, Yogesh, in Nagarabhavi on September 30.

An argument, reportedly over a senior female student, had led to the clash which ended in the death of Yogesh.

According to the preliminary investigation, the incident stemmed from a dispute involving a female student. The prime accused, identified as Bhuvan, is currently absconding, and the police have launched a search to trace him.

Yogesh and Bhuvan were first-year BCom students at a private college on Muddayanapalya Road in Nagarabhavi. Bhuvan was reportedly in love with a student of the same college. However, the girl had rejected his advances.

The police suspect that Yogesh had spoken negatively about the girl, angering Bhuvan and leading to the confrontation.
