A shocking incident unfolded at a de-addiction centre in outer north Delhi, leaving one man dead and another in police custody. Authorities report that Arun Kumar, 22, was fatally stabbed by fellow inmate Arun Joshi, a 27-year-old chemical engineer, following a heated argument.
The tragedy took place at the Kirandeep Foundation in Kashmiri Colony. Police discovered the scene at the facility after an emergency alert and found blood scattered across the premises. Though Kumar was moved to a hospital, he was pronounced dead upon arrival.
Initial investigations suggest that prior tension between Kumar and Joshi resulted in the attack. Records indicate about 27 residents are at the facility, with CCTV footage and other evidence under evaluation to ensure a thorough investigation and highlight any procedural flaws.
