With tears streaming down his face, the man said: "He has been attacked for no reason.
"He was such a lovely guy.
"He was an educated person, he was a degree holder, he was a businessman, he is a brother, he is a son and a brother-in-law.
"Somebody murdered him so brutally.
"We demand justice for him, we just want justice for him please."
