Neha Murder Case: In a gut-wrenching incident captured on camera, the daughter of a local Congress councillor was stabbed to death on Thursday by a classmate at the premises of her college in Karnataka's Hubballi. Neha Hiremath, a 21-year-old BCA student at KLE Technological University, was stabbed multiple times by one of her classmates and alleged one-sided lover Fayaz, according to the police.
The accused Fayaz could be seen stabbing Neha multiple times on her neck in a video which is now doing rounds over social media. Even though police are yet to ascertain the reason behind the motive of the accused, many reports suggest that Fayaz murdered Neha after she rejected his proposal.
