4 Jul
Summary
- Two men died after a clash during a naming ceremony in Sector 19.
- One victim, Sanjeet, was fatally stabbed while returning home.
- A second man, Arjun, was found dead at the same location later.
A celebratory naming ceremony in Sector 19 took a grim turn late on Friday night when a clash erupted between two groups. The incident tragically led to the deaths of two men. Sanjeet, aged 20, was attacked with a sharp weapon while returning to the function celebrating his six-day-old son's name, and was found critically injured near the Sector 19 Industrial Area underpass. He was pronounced dead upon arrival at the civil hospital.
Following the initial incident, the body of Arjun, a resident of Khadak Mangoli, was discovered around 4 am on Saturday at the same location. Arjun had attended the ceremony and was initially considered a suspect in Sanjeet's murder. Police are investigating an old rivalry and a possible family dispute, as Arjun was married to Sanjeet's sister, as potential motives for the violence. The investigation is ongoing, with police examining CCTV footage to identify all individuals involved.
