A 26-year-old transporter was stabbed to death by two persons on Sunday night. One of the accused in the case has been arrested.

According to the police, the victim has been identified as Baldev, a resident of Sahib Mohalla, Mani Majra.

The complainant, Sukhvir Singh, younger brother of the victim, in his statement to the police, claimed that Kamaljit, alias Boomla (33), who was standing with his friends near Dera Sahib Gurdwara, called his brother Baldev on the pretext of discussing some issue. In the meantime, Gaurav, alias Kalu, arrived on the spot on his motorcycle. Gaurav then entered into an altercation with his brother.

It is alleged that Kamaljit caught the victim and Gaurav attacked him with a knife.

The victim was stabbed on the neck and the right side of the chest. Both accused then escaped from the spot after leaving the victim. 

The victim’s brother, along with his brother-in-law Sunil Kumar, shifted the injured to the Civil Hospital, Mani Majra, from where doctors referred him to the PGI. The victim was rushed to the PGI in an ambulance. However, doctors there declared him brought dead. 

The police said the incident was a fallout of old enmity between the victim and the accused. 

The police have registered a case under Sections 302 (murder) and 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of a common intention) of the IPC against both accused at the Mani Majra police station. 

The police have arrested Kamaljit, a resident of Shanti Nagar, Mani Majra, while raids are being conducted to nab the other accused.
