Bangalore, January 03: A 27-year-old software professional hailing from Jharkhand was killed after a fall from Nandi hills in the neighbouring Chikkaballapura district today, police said.
A police official from Chikkaballapura Rural police station said that Vimal Kishore was working in Samsung in Bangalore.
Along with three of his friends Vijay Yadav, Akhil Gupta and Sumit Chatterjee, he visited the picturesque Nandi hills, a favourite tourist spot near India’s technology hub, to watch sunrise.
After a while, his friends noticed that Kishore, who was from Palamu district of Jharkhand, was missing, and they reported it to the local police.
Police suspect that Kishore might have slipped following poor visibility because of thick fog which covered the hills.
