Nagpur, Nov. 16 -- In a shocking incident in Nagpur, BJP North Nagpur ward president Sachin alias "Sonu" Omprakash Sahu was murdered in broad daylight in the Kanji House area on Saturday, police said.

According to police, the killing appears to have stemmed from a financial dispute rather than political rivalry.

Preliminary investigations revealed that Sahu had borrowed Rs 1 lakh from a man named Babu Gaur. Disagreements over the repayment had reportedly led to confrontations between the two.

On Saturday afternoon, four unidentified men allegedly ambushed Sahu in Kanji House and attacked him with a sharp weapon, resulting in his death.

The assailants fled the scene immediately after the attack.
