Bantwal: A 45-year-old man, accused in several cases of robbery and murder, was found killed in a car at Shantinagar area at near Bantwal, according to police.
It is suspected that he was kidnapped by members of a rival gang who fled from the spot soon after committing the murder.
The deceased has been identified as C M Muhthasim, alias Don Tasleem, a native of Kasaragod in Kerala.
He was wanted in many criminal cases.
His body, which bore injury marks on the neck and other parts, was found in the car on Sunday.
Tasleem had been released on bail from the Kalaburagi prison on January 31 and was returning to his native place when unidentified assailants kidnapped him.
