An e-rickshaw driver is in police custody after allegedly stabbing a labourer to death in northwest Delhi during the early hours of Thursday. Authorities responded to a distress call at 7:16 AM about a man found injured with stab wounds, leading to a swift police response to the scene.

The victim, identified as 28-year-old Mohit from Mangol Puri, was rushed to Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital, where medical staff declared him dead upon arrival. Initial investigations disclosed that Mohit, a tent labourer, had left his residence Tuesday night before the tragic incident unfolded.

Investigators revealed that the altercation arose between Mohit and Sandeep, the 35-year-old suspect, at a house following a minor dispute. Sandeep, also from Mangol Puri and an e-rickshaw driver, allegedly stabbed Mohit in the leg. The weapon was recovered, and further investigations continue.
