A 20-year-old youth has been murdered after his throat was slit following an argument between two parties at a musical show in Kalutara.

The deceased, Menura Nimthara Wanigasekara, has been identified as a resident of the Dodangoda area, Ada Derana reporter said.

Police are conducting further investigations regarding the incident.
