Food delivery agent stabbed to death by teenager in Delhi's Rohini

A 28-year-old food delivery agent was allegedly stabbed to death in Delhi's Rohini by a teenager following an altercation over a common female friend, police said on Friday.

The incident took place in the Vijay Vihar area on Tuesday when 19-year-old Nikhil Tomar stabbed Deepak multiple times, they said.

According to police, the two men had an altercation last week over the woman that escalated.

"Both victim and accused had criminal backgrounds,” Rohini Deputy Commissioner of Police Amit Goel said.

The police received a call on Tuesday evening regarding the incident near Nirankari Bhawan, following which a team reached the spot and the victim was taken to a hospital, where doctors declared him dead, Goel said.

Over 200 CCTV footage were analysed that led to Tomar's identification and his arrest, he said.

During interrogation, he confessed to the crime and disclosed information about his accomplices, who were currently on the run, Goel added.

Tomar also revealed that his enmity with Deepak grew due to their common female friend, officials said.
