Seelampur scuffle turns fatal: One dead, two Injured

New Delhi: A man was killed and two others were injured after a scuffle turned fatal in northeast Delhi's Seelampur on Monday morning.

The deceased has been identified as Ismail (65). Among the injured are his associate, Shahid Ali (45), and Danish, who has been named as the accused in the murder.

Police said they received information around 8.30 am from Jag Pravesh Chandra Hospital that Ismail, who sustained stab injuries, was brought dead. During the inquiry, it was revealed that in the morning, Ismail was sitting near his house with an associate, Mohammad Irshad, when Danish passed by.

According to police, Ismail allegedly stared at Danish, triggering him due to a previous dispute. This led to a heated argument, during which Ali tried to intervene but was allegedly assaulted by Danish, who punched him in the eye.

"Thereafter, the accused brought a knife and inflicted multiple stab injuries on the chest, abdomen and head of Ismail," said DCP (northeast) Ashish Kumar Mishra. He was rushed to the hospital by locals.

Police added that after learning about the attack on their father, Ismail's sons, Zafar and Faizan, reached the spot and another scuffle broke out. During the clash, the duo allegedly attacked Danish and his family members, leaving him with injuries on his chest and other parts of his body.

The crime team and forensic experts inspected the scene and collected evidence, while CCTV footage from the area is being analysed.

A case has been registered in connection with Ismail's murder, and Danish, who has been identified as the accused, is under treatment. A separate case has also been registered against Zafar and Faizan for the subsequent assault.
