In Gurugram, a grim murder unfolded on the night of June 12-13, 2026. A 64-year-old man, identified as Balram, was allegedly beaten to death with sticks and rods following a dispute involving verbal abuse with three local residents. The accused, identified as Vishesh Tomar (18), Mithun (30), and Sandeep (41), reportedly sought to destroy evidence.
Following the fatal assault, police reports indicate that two of the accused transported Balram's body approximately 500 meters to an isolated plot behind Khandsa village on a motorcycle. There, they allegedly set the body on fire, remaining until it was completely consumed to erase any traces of the crime.

Police records reveal prior cases against two of the accused. Authorities plan to seek police remand to recover further evidence and continue their investigation.
