In a shocking incident, a dispute over loud music between neighbours during the New Year celebration took a violent turn when a man in the Indian capital Delhi was beaten to death.
The incident occurred in West Delhi’s Rohini when the 40-year-old man, Dharmender, complained to neighbours about the loud music during the night of New Year. The Police Control Room (PCR) received a phone call regarding the quarrel between the neighbours around 1 am.
When the police arrived, Dharmender was involved in a heated argument with two brothers, Kapil Tiwari, 26, and Piyush Tiwari, 21. Initial investigations revealed that Dharmender had objected to the brothers regarding the loud noise, which led to a dispute between them.
Soon the debate turned violent and Dharmender was assaulted by the brothers. According to his brother, Dinesh, “My brother's fate was sealed in a matter of minutes,” reported TOI.
“The loud music kept our family awake, so I went downstairs to investigate. My brother followed, thinking he was protecting me. But the situation escalated rapidly. They dragged me to a corner, and one of them brutally assaulted my brother with a stick. His wife and children tried to intervene, but they were powerless to stop the attack. He was left bleeding and battered,” Dinesh told TOI.
