A man allegedly attacked and killed a 26-year-old woman from West Bengal after she started avoiding him, and then attempted to end his life, police said on Thursday. The gruesome incident unfolded in Hyderabad, where the victim was stabbed multiple times.

According to police at Gachibowli Police Station, the accused, from Bidar district in Karnataka, went to the woman's room on Wednesday night and attacked her with a knife. When three of her roommates intervened, they were also attacked. The police rushed to the scene and transported the victims to a hospital, where the woman was declared dead.

The accused and the woman, a beautician, had known each other from their time in Bengaluru and were allegedly in a relationship.
