New Delhi:
A worker at a food outlet in east Delhi’s Preet Vihar was killed in a fight with a colleague early Thursday, police said.
The incident occurred at a food corner owned by one Tripta Rastogi, they said.
According to police, they received a PCR call from Rastogi that two of her employees, Suraj and Prakash around 2 am got into a fight during which Suraj reportedly struck Prakash on the head with a dumbbell and fled.
Rastogi rushed to the restaurant and found Prakash bleeding profusely. She rushed him to a nearby clinic and from there to Hedgewar Hospital where he was declared dead.
“We have registered a case of culpable homicide not amounting to murder against the accused and further investigation has been launched. A crime team inspected the scene, recovering the alleged weapon used in the attack,” a senior police officer said.
Police said some employees stayed overnight at the eatery, and the fight broke out over a “trivial matter.”
