A 38-year-old manager was allegedly beaten to death and stabbed in a brutal attack inside a bike showroom in Bihar's Darbhanga district that was captured on CCTV cameras. The victim, Mohammad Faiz, was working as the manager of a bike showroom at Chandan Patti Chowk when the incident unfolded around 5 pm on Friday.
According to police, the attacker entered the showroom while Faiz was seated at his computer and violently attacked him using an iron rod. CCTV footage purportedly shows the accused repeatedly striking the manager on his face as he sat at his desk. Faiz collapsed in his chair without resistance.
The attacker allegedly returned moments later, picked up a pair of scissors from inside the showroom and stabbed Faiz multiple times in the neck before fleeing the scene on a scooter parked outside.
