Chalakudy (Thrissur): A CPM worker was hacked to death in Pariyarm here. The deceased was identified as Kalathingal Davis (58), a native of Munippara in the district.
According to police, the murder was committed by CPI activist Shijith. There is no political motive behind the murder. Personal vendetta led to the murder, they said.
Parking of his vehicle by Shijith on the way to Davis house had led to a scuffle between the two earlier. Davis was named accused in the incident of beating up Shijith.
The revenge relating to this incident had led to the murder on Saturday, police further stated.
