A 22-year-old salesman was stabbed to death inside a first-class compartment of a moving Mumbai local train on Monday night following an altercation over a train door. The victim, identified as Mayank Lohar, was attacked between Andheri and Borivali stations on a Churchgate-Nallasopara fast local during heavy rainfall. According to railway police, the dispute began when Lohar requested a co-passenger to shut the compartment door to keep the rain out.
The incident took place aboard Train No. 90663, which departed from Churchgate station at 10:05 PM. As the argument escalated, the unidentified suspect pulled out a sharp weapon and stabbed Lohar in the abdomen, inflicting severe injuries. Moments before the train pulled into Borivali station at 11:04 PM, the assailant jumped from the moving carriage near Platform 6 and escaped the premises.
