A 25-year-old man was stabbed to death allegedly by his friend in an inebriated state following a scuffle over a petty issue in Kashmere Gate area of North Delhi on Sunday night. Police said that they have arrested the accused.
According to the police, the victim has been identified as Sharad, a nephew of a Delhi Police personnel, who was allegedly stabbed by his friend identified as Harish, a resident of Kashmere Gate police staff quarters.
