Hyderabad early Monday. The assailants, believed to be associates of a slain friend, attacked Teju near his rented accommodation at Pragathi Nagar. Shockingly, a video circulating on social media shows two of the attackers brandishing knives and celebrating the murder shortly after its commission.

Police reports indicate that Teju sustained multiple stab wounds, estimated to be around 10-11, resulting in his death. Authorities swiftly launched a manhunt, deploying four teams to apprehend the fleeing assailants.

Teju, also known as Teja, had relocated to Pragati Nagar under Bachupally police limits following fears of retaliation from associates of Tarun Roy, a friend whose murder he was allegedly involved. After serving time in jail and subsequently being released on bail, Teju resided with his mother in a rented apartment.

The attackers, reportedly aware of Teju's whereabouts, launched their assault while he was consuming alcohol with a friend in his home. The assailants inflicted fatal stab wounds on Teju, resulting in his demise.
Investigations suggest that four individuals were involved in the murder, prompting law enforcement to intensify efforts to track them down. The heinous act, captured in celebratory videos shared on social media, has sent shockwaves across the community.(With TOI inputs)
