A 39-year-old realtor was allegedly hacked to death by a group of armed men in Bengaluru’s Machohalli on Tuesday, over a row reportedly involving an illicit affair of the victim’s wife.

The deceased has been identified as Vinay Kumar, who had shifted to Machohalli from Kamakshipalya with his family, after a fight with the accused, Dhanjaya, his friend and an autorickshaw driver.
