The incident took place on Sunday, and upon receiving information, a police team rushed to the scene.

“Upon reaching the spot, the team found blood on the road. Preliminary inquiry revealed that the victim, Ankit (20), had already been shifted to a nearby hospital by a PCR van. He was taken to a private hospital in Rohini, where doctors declared him brought dead,” a police officer said.

The body was later sent to the Burari Hospital for a post-mortem. A case has been registered at Samaypur Badli police station, and an investigation was launched.

Investigation revealed that Ankit and the two accused were consuming alcohol together, and an argument broke out among them, following which Shivam stabbed him.
