The post-mortem report shows that bricks and other blunt objects were used to kill him. There were head injuries and marks of two cuts on the body. A lot of blood had deposited in the abdominal area suggesting internal bleeding,” Rafiqur Rahman, in-charge, Phulwari Sharif police station told The Indian Express
