A case of suspected honour killing came to fore when a man was stabbed to death by an assailant on a bike at Saroornagar Tehsildar office in Hyderabad on Wednesday.

Police have detained a few suspects, all of whom belong to family of the man's wife.

The man identified as Nagraj, had married a Muslim woman, Syed Sultana, two months ago.

Nagraj was stabbed to death at Saroornagar Tehsildar office at around 9pm on Wednesday night by an unknown person who was on a bike.

The assailant fled the scene. Many passersby recorded the incident on their phones and some even clicked pictures of the dead body.

One of Nagraj's relatives alleged that since Nagraj and his wife belonged to different religions, her family killed the boy.
