The ex-employee, who has been identified as Felix, is reportedly on the run. Reports suggest that the suspect had previously left the tech company to start his own venture. However, it is believed that he held a deep grudge against Phanindra, as the latter had strongly opposed his industry practices.

Felix entered the Aeronics office at around 4 PM today, armed with a sword and a knife. He stabbed Phanindra Subramanya and Vinu Kumar before fleeing the scene. The police have initiated an investigation to apprehend the absconding suspect.
