A 53-year-old former vice-chancellor of a private university was hacked to death late on Tuesday night in a playground about 100ft from his R T Nagar residence and 50 metres from the jurisdictional police station.

D Ayyappa Dore, 53, former V-C of Alliance University and RTI activist, was found in a pool of blood around 5.30am on Wednesday when his wife Pavana Dibbur, also a former VC of the university, started searching for him. She alerted a passing police patrol vehicle that her husband was missing and his mobile phone was ringing.

In no time, police personnel found Dore’s body at the HMT Ground. The body bore half-a-dozen hack marks, and police suspected the killers may have been armed with machetes. Dore is survived by wife, two daughters and an eight-year-old son.

Nurturing political ambitions, Dore had floated Jana Samanyara Party in 2017 and unsuccessfully entered Muddebihal fray in Vijayapura district in the 2018 elections.

Bengaluru City police commissioner Bhaskar Rao announced three special teams to nab the assailants.
