A 32-yeara-old man was allegedly killed by his elder brother and nephew after he sold his bull in a village in Nagpur district of Maharashtra, following which the two accused were arrested, police said on Monday.
The accused duo attacked Vijay Dekate with a rod and also smashed his head with a stone on Friday afternoon, a police official said.
They are identified as Hansraj Dekate (58) and his son Pranay (24).
He said the two brothers were locked in a land dispute since the death of their father last December.
Hansraj was angry as Vijay sold the bull to a villager last week without informing the former, the official said.
A case was registered against the duo for murder at Bhivapur police station.
