Bhopal, November 3: In a tragic incident, a 26-year-old man was brutally murdered by his 19-year-old nephew during a disagreement over contributions for alcohol and chicken at a party in the Charagwan area of Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh. The victim, Manoj “Mannu” Thakur, was attacked by his nephew, Dharam “Abhi” Thakur, after a heated argument about the amount of money each had contributed.
