Singer and actor Bikram Pariyar was mysteriously stoned to death by an unidentified gang.

The unknown group hurled stones at Pariyar while he was riding his motorbike at Nirmaltar in Byash Municipality-1 at around 5 pm on Sunday, police said.

It has remained a mystery as to who killed Pariyar.

He had arrived in Damauli on Saturday to cast his ballot in the local level polls.

Police Inspector Bijaya Raj Pandey said they have been searching for those involved in the incident.

His body was found bleeding along with a stone by his side.

Another local Devi Narayan Shrestha has been injured in the incident. He has been referred to Pokhara after preliminary treatment at Ratnahari Hospital.

Preliminary investigation has revealed that the murder was not politically motivated.
