A team of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has been sent to Rajasthan's Udaipur where a Hindu tailor was Tuesday beheaded for expressing support for suspended Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Nupur Sharma.

The murder was filmed by his killers and the situation sparked massive tension in the city.

According to reports, the murder is being treated as a terror incident and which is why the NIA might be taking to the probe, media reports said.

The police have already arrested two men- attackers Gos Mohammad and Riyaz- in connection with the case.
