Two Minors Killed After Violent Clash in Rohini

In another incident, two minors were allegedly stabbed to death following a violent clash between rival groups in northwest Delhi’s Rohini area on Wednesday evening.

According to police, the incident took place in Sector-20 Rohini when three juveniles from Sultanpuri allegedly arrived in the area searching for another boy linked to an earlier murder case involving one of their associates.

Officials said the three youths, allegedly carrying weapons, failed to locate the boy and later got into a confrontation with members of a local family.

During the altercation, the juveniles allegedly assaulted a woman and her son, leaving both injured.

Rivalry Linked to Earlier Murder Case

Police said the three boys later attempted to flee but were chased by the injured woman’s son and several local residents. During the chase, a knife reportedly slipped from the hand of one of the fleeing juveniles.

A 14-year-old boy from the rival group allegedly picked up the weapon and attacked two of the minors, stabbing one in the neck and another in the abdomen and chest.

Both victims collapsed on the road with severe injuries. They were rushed to a nearby hospital but were declared dead by doctors, police officials said.

The third injured boy is currently undergoing treatment. Police have apprehended a minor in connection with the case.

Senior officers and forensic teams visited the crime scene and recovered the knife allegedly used in the killings. Investigators have also registered cross-cases, including charges of murder and attempt to murder, based on complaints from both groups.

Police suspect the clash was linked to an ongoing rivalry connected to an earlier murder case. CCTV footage from the area is being examined to establish the sequence of events.
