The killers of a medical student slashed his throat and wrote 'he's gay' in his blood across the wall of his dorm room.

Assil Belalta was found dead at his student residence at University City in Ben Aknoun, just outside Algiers, Algeria, on Sunday.

The 21-year-old has his throat cut in what has been reported as a homophobic killing by two attackers who then stole his car. 

According to local media, the junior medical student was followed into his room at the Taleb Abderrahmane campus by his killers who then left him for dead after smearing his blood on the wall. 

Alouen, an LGBT rights group, claimed in a Facebook post that the murder was fuelled by the Algerian government's anti-gay views.
