HYDERABAD: The two accused, who shot Hyderabadi Karunakar Karengle on December 4 in Ohio, US, wore face masks during the crime at Jiffy Mart in Cincinnatis Dixie Highway. The murder was captured on the CCTV camera of the convenience store.
The masked murderers have made it tough for the police to crack the case. Karengle died on December 8 in a hospital after he was admitted for two bullet injuries that he suffered.

The last rites of the 53-year-old man were performed at the Panjagutta cremation grounds after the body was brought from the US. Karengles family lives at Masab Tank.
The grieving family is now concerned about the future of Karunakars wife Vijaya and their son Aniket. "The least the government can do to help the family is take care of Aniket's education. He intends to pursue engineering. A job also should be given to Karunakars wife. The family needs help," said Samarender Karengle, Karunakar Karengle's nephew.
With assistance from the Union ministry of external affairs, the family was able to get the body home to India and performed the last rites. Asked what progress was had been made in the case, Samarender Karengle said the police in Fairfield, Ohio had gathered the CCTV footage of the incident. He said there appeared to be no security personnel at the convenience store where his uncle was working.
The motive, as it appeared, was robbery. On the 'godfundme' page, that Samarender Karengle started, a little over $6,460 poured in as donation even in small amounts against the goal of $50,000. About 100 people made donations.
While these donations may help the family, Samarender Karengle said that it would be of greater help to the family if Karunakars wife was given a job.
