Late on Friday night, D Surendar alias Suri, a resident of Meerpet through a woman named D Surendar , asked Salman to come to TKR Kaman in Meerpet to discuss some financial issues.

He was rushed to a hospital where doctors pronounced him dead,” said Meerpet SHO, M. Kasivishwanath, adding Kiran fled away from the spot when Suri and others attacked Salman.

According to the police, Suri had earlier married Saba Fatima, sister of Salman and due to some issues allegedly pushed her from the first floor of the building leading to her death. A case of murder was registered against Suri and he was arrested in the case.
