Mangaluru: Two people were taken into custody by the police on Friday October 31, in connection with the brutal murder of 28-year-old Ijaz alias Ijja. They were apprehended by the police hours after his death.

Ijaz had visited Modelling Hair Dressers in Kannur for shaving, when he was attacked by a group of assailants. Ijaz had 32 wound marks on his body and pieces of his body parts got severed due to the intensity of the attack.

According to the police Ijaz was involved with ganja trafficking and had a tiff with another group in the same business. Lately the situation between Ijaz group and the opposite group had developed hostility.

The gang had learnt that Ijaz visits the saloon before his Friday prayer, thus they hatched  a plan to kill him, with lethal weapons, before fleeing in a car.

Moreover Ijaz was name was also linked to the murder of Sannaputta alias Puttu Monu at Kannur in March 2012, the hearing relating to which, is in progress in the third JMFC court here. It is also presumed that the attack on Monu may be the reason behind Ijaz’s murder.
