Bidve, from Pune, was with nine Indian students on Monday when they were approached by two men in Salford. He was shot at close range after a "very short" conversation.

Bidve, 23, was a student of microelectronics at Lancaster University.

Professor Bob McKinlay, deputy vice chancellor of Lancaster University, said Bidve had been "at the very beginning of a promising career and had only been at Lancaster for a short time. We are deeply saddened by his loss and our thoughts are with his family and friends, and we will do all we can to support them at this sad time."

In a statement, Bidve's family said his death had left "a void in our lives."

"Anuj was a loving son, a caring brother and first and forever a friend for many," the statement added.
