Hyderabad Family Seeks Justice

A 28-year-old man from Hyderabad, identified as Anshul Kuncha, was allegedly shot dead in Philadelphia, United States, while delivering pizzas. The incident has left his family in deep shock, with relatives claiming that he may have been lured to an abandoned location through a fake delivery order.

Pizza Delivery Turns Fatal

According to his family, Anshul was working with an MNC in North Philadelphia and was also doing weekend pizza deliveries for extra income. His sister said the family was informed that he was shot multiple times and left on the road. She claimed nothing was stolen from him, raising questions over the motive behind the attack.

Consulate Extends Support

The Consulate General of India in New York expressed condolences over Anshul’s death and said it is in touch with the family while extending possible assistance. His family has appealed to Indian authorities to help bring his mortal remains back home at the earliest.

Safety Concerns For Indian Families

Anshul had moved to the US around four years ago for studies. His sister described him as a loving and joyful person and urged parents to think carefully before sending children abroad. The case has again raised concerns over the safety of Indian students and workers taking up part-time jobs in the US.
