GURUGRAM: Three employees of a CNG pump in Sector-31 here were hacked to death using sharp weapons in the early hours of Monday, police said.
The deceased are identified as pump manager pushpendra and workers Bhupender and Naresh. They hailed from different districts of Uttar Pradesh, police said.
“Pushpendra and Bhupendra had around 10 injuries on their neck and chest while Naresh had over 12 injuries on his abdomen, chest and neck,” Dr. Deepak Mathurwho conducted the post-mortem, said, adding all three men were killed using different weapons.
