Paruchuri Surendra Kumar (51) was the founder of the Paruchuri Global Foundation, Global Security Services and Galaxy Capital Investments Pvt Ltd.

Financial reasons are believed to be the motive for the murder.

According to the police, Kumar, a bachelor, was staying alone in a rented bungalow at Postal Colony in Hanumaiah Layout, about 50 metres from the Sanjaynagar police station.

He was returning home after celebrating Deepavali with his staff when the incident took place.

Kumar went to his office in Hebbal and distributed sweets and firecrackers to his staff. Later, he went to his farm house at Kammanahallipalya near Devanahalli, where he sheltered 56 stray dogs. Around 9.40 pm, Kumar reached his bungalow.

He was about to open the gate when the two bike-borne suspects accosted him. The duo fired six bullets at him from a very close range and fled.

“He sustained injuries on his cheek, neck, temple, shoulder, chest and stomach. His car driver and security guard rushed him to M?S?Ramaiah Hospital, where doctors declared him dead on arrival,” the victim’s brother, Captain Chowdary, told DH.

“He always carried a licensed weapon. He kept it in a suitcase on the rear seat of the car. The attack was so quick that my brother did not have time to react,” Chowdary said.

Police said the suspects were on his trail from the Hebbal flyover.

They reached his residence minutes before he arrived and hid behind a bush, completely out of sight. Reports suggest that the duo were on a black Pulsar motorbike, but the police are yet to confirm this.

Kumar had dismissed the heads of a few sections in his offices about seven months ago. Their involvement in the murder is suspected. Police have also not ruled out the possibility of contract killing.

The driver and security guard have been detained for questioning.

“He had lodged 11 complaints against his former employees and servants regarding thefts. There was a complaint of intimidation against him. There could be business and personal causes behind the murder.?The police will arrest the suspects soon,”?Additional Commissioner of Police (West)?K S R?Charan Reddy said.
