The Delhi Police on Monday apprehended four minors in connection with a stabbing incident in Jafrabad.

According to the police, the victim, Nazir (35), a resident of Jafrabad, was riding his scooty when he was attacked by a group of boys wielding knives near Mangla Hospital lane, Chauhan Bangar in Jafrabad on Sunday evening. A murder case was subsequently registered by the police.

“Nazir was found dead in an alley around 250 m away from his residence, with multiple stab wounds on his forehead, neck and abdomen,” officials said.

The police revealed that Nazir was considered a “bad character” at the Jafrabad police station, with numerous criminal cases, including robbery and attempted murder, registered against him.
