The neck and other body parts of the man killed for alleged sacrilege bid at a local gurdwara here had over eight "deep sharp cuts" that were likely to have been inflicted by swords, a senior medical officer of the local civil hospital, where his body has been kept, said on Monday.

Police said no murder case has been registered in this case as yet and their priority is to establish the identity of the man for which they have shared his pictures in media and with the police in other states.
