A man named Govind was found dead in Mathura, India.

Police found Govind’s body near a police station.
They are looking for the driver, who is missing.
Govind, a 30‑32‑year‑old man from Agra, was found dead in Mathura district after refusing his sister’s relationship with an e‑rickshaw driver.
Police say the victim was attacked with an axe after being lured out of his house by the driver, Mukesh, who allegedly drank alcohol with him.
The body showed head and back injuries from a sharp‑edged weapon, and a post‑mortem is underway.
