A 20-year-old man died after he was stabbed multiple times by a group of teenagers in Rohini’s Vijay Vihar on November 3, the police said on Sunday. The accused chased him before attacking upon him, they said.
Deceased Ravi, who hailed from Uttar Pradesh, lived in a rented room in Vijay Vihar. He was employed as a waiter with a catering company.
On November 3, when he was returning home after work, he was attacked by the group of the accused over some “petty issue”. He was chased and stabbed in public.
