A youth working as a brick layer has been reportedly thrashed to death by his fellow workers at Keirao Makting under Irilbung police station.
Md Sahid alias Mangi (18) s/o Jalaludin of Keirao Makting Mayai Leikai was found lying unconscious within the compound of Trio Standard English School near his locality last evening.
Immediately Sahid was rushed to JNIMS but the doctors there declared Sahid was brought dead.
Family members said that Sahid went out of home last morning taking along with him around Rs 1800 to purchase a mobile phone handset.
But on inspecting the corpse today, bruises were observed in addition to marks of bleeding on the nose and ear.
Subsequently, locals rounded up three suspects who happened to be friends of Sahid.
The suspects have been identified as Md Anwar (23), Md Janab (22) and Md Piktru (18) .
However, as the local people were caught in a din caused by the killing of Sahid, the three suspects were taken away by police.
The corpse is awaiting post mortem examination at JNIMS mortuary.
