At around 9pm on Sunday, a motorcycle had come dangerously close to another two-wheeler, often called 'cut' in street lingo, after which a group attacked and killed a motorcycle-borne teen identified as Shubham Bhuvad, an official said.
"The man whose motorcycle came close to this group, and who rode ahead and escaped, was wearing a red T-shirt, and, unfortunately, so was Shubham. This made the eight men assault and kill him. We have registered a murder case and are probing further," the Kashimira police station official said.
