Ullal: A rickshaw driver was found murdered here at Mangatte in Natekal on Saturday morning. The deceased is 35-year-old Hidayath.
On Friday night at around 8pm, he is said to have called his wife and told her that he had a drop. He also told her not to prepare dinner and that he would be getting food from outside. But she waited for him and he did not return that night. There was no trace of him in the morning as well and hence she informed his brother Haneef. However they could not find him. His body was found on Saturday morning near Mangatte.

It is learnt that two days back Farooq, a resident of Alekala had threatened to kill Hidayath. Hidayath had complained to police on Friday in this regard.
