The Delhi Police has arrested a 21-year-old man in connection with an attempt to murder case in northwest Delhi’s Shalimar Bagh, an official said on Monday.
The police arrested Sumit on Sunday night for his alleged involvement in a knife attack on two teenage brothers on February 23 at a government school in Haiderpur, following a prior dispute, he said.
According to the police, the complainant, a 16-year-old boy, and his 17-year-old brother were allegedly attacked by Sumit and his associates after an altercation stemming from an ongoing rivalry among school students.
“During the assault, one of the associates allegedly stabbed both brothers with a knife, while others restrained them and issued threats. On hearing their mother’s alarm, local residents rushed to the spot, forcing the attackers to flee,” a senior police officer said.
They were taken to a hospital, where doctors found incised and penetrating wounds caused by a sharp-edged weapon, he said.
Based on the complainant’s statement, the police registered a case at the Shalimar Bagh police station on February 24.
“A team identified and apprehended the accused. During interrogation, Sumit admitted to his role in the attack. Efforts are underway to arrest the remaining accused,” the officer said.
