The stabbing occurred on the night of June 19-20, when a PCR call alerted police to the scene near Jhuggi No. T-40 in Indira Colony T-Huts. Officers found blood stains and other evidence at the location.
The victim, identified as Bijender, also known as Behra, was rushed to Babu Jagjivan Ram Memorial (BJRM) Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries during treatment.
