The native american authorities on fri verbalized rue and concern over the brutal beheading of Chandra Nagamallaiah, an Indian national who was fatally attacked in front of his family at his workplace in the United States.
The Consulate General of India in Houston confirmed the tragic incident and extended condolences to the victim's family.
In an official statement, the Consulate called Nagamallaiah's death “tragic” and said it is in constant touch with the family, providing all necessary support during this difficult time.
"Consulate General of India, Houston, condoles the tragic death of Mr. Chandra Nagamallaiah, an Indian National, killed brutally at his workplace in Dallas, Tx. We are in touch with the family and offering all possible assistance. The accused is in the custody of the Dallas Police. We are following up on the matter closely," the statement read.
Chandra Nagamallaiah, a motel manager in Dallas, Texas, reportedly got into an argument with one Cobos-Martinez about a malfunctioning washing machine, which led to his unfortunate killing.
According to police, a fellow motel worker said she was cleaning a room with Cobos-Martinez when Nagamallaiah arrived and instructed them not to use the faulty machine.
However, the matter escalated when Nagamallaiah asked another person to translate his instructions rather than speaking directly to Cobos-Martinez, which reportedly enraged him.
Surveillance footage later showed Cobos-Martinez leaving the scene, returning with a machete, and attacking Nagamallaiah.
