The scene of the crime was promptly protected, and the District Crime Team was summoned to collect forensic evidence and photographs.

The initial enquiry, based on the eye-witness' account, revealed that the dispute began over a seemingly minor issue of the breaking of a side-mirror of a car. However, the argument escalated due to deep-seated "previous enmity."

Multiple teams formed swift raids conducted by the Badarpur Police, culminating in the successful detention of four accused. The key accused has been identified as H (JCL), who is a school dropout and unemployed.

The other three accused arrested have been identified as Amar (25), a school dropout who works as a marble polishing labourer, N (JCL), a school dropout and unemployed, and Vicky (31), a school dropout who works as a driver.

The police have seized a weapon of offence and blood-stained clothes from the possession of the accused.

A case has been registered under Sections 103 (1) (Murder), 109 (Attempt to Murder), and 3 (5) (Common Intention) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).

Further investigation is underway. (ANI)
