Delhi sanitation worker stabbed to death; AAP MLA seeks ‘encounter’ on killer
A 28-year-old sanitation worker named Anil Kumar was stabbed to death on Sunday morning in East Delhi's Kalyanpuri while performing his duties. The assailant, who is also a sanitation worker, attacked Anil with a knife after approaching him near a garbage van, according to police. CCTV footage captured the entire incident, showing the attacker grabbing Anil by the collar and repeatedly stabbing him as two men nearby did nothing to stop the assault.
Anil's driver quickly took him to a hospital where he was pronounced dead, and the attacker has been identified. Police are investigating whether the killing was motivated by personal animosity, but the exact reason remains under review. In response to the brutal attack, AAP MLA Kuldeep Kumar visited Anil's family at the hospital and called for compensation for the victim's relatives and an encounter with the killer.
The MLA also threatened to halt garbage collection services in Delhi until justice is served for Anil's family.
