A 24-year-old man died and his friend suffered injuries after a group of people allegedly beat them up and robbed them in south Delhi’s Sangam Vihar, the police said on Thursday.
The deceased has been identified as Jatin, while his friend Pankaj has been discharged from hospital. The police have arrested one Ramjan Ali and have identified the other accused.
