A 35 year old actor was stabbed to death and his body was found lying in a pool of blood in his house. Neighbours who discovered blood stains outside his locked house alerted the cops who broke in.

Sathish Vajra who runs a salon in West Bengaluru has also acted in bit roles in several Kannada movies inlcuding 'Lagori' and television serials. He also runs a YouTube channel. It is said that his wife died seven months back under mysterious circumstances leaving behind their small child. The parents of the woman accused Sathish of physical and mental torture that drove her to death by suicide.

Police have arrested Sudarshan the younger brother of Sathish Vajra's late wife and his friend Nagendra in connection with the murder. Initial investigation suggests that Sudarshan heartbroken by his sister's death wanted to avenge her and took Nagendra to his brother in law's house and slit Sathish's throat and abdomen and left him to bleed to death.
