Delhi man asks vendor for extra chole, stabbed to death
A 35-year-old man named Sandeep was fatally stabbed in Outer Delhi’s Paschim Vihar area after a disagreement with a food stall owner over additional chole, according to the Delhi Police. The incident occurred on Sunday night when Sandeep, a private company driver, visited the Jwalapuri market area with his friends after purchasing chhole bhature from a stall.
Sandeep, who had ordered extra chole for his young children, was unhappy with the amount served. He approached the owner, Chintu Gupta, requesting more. A physical altercation ensued, resulting in Chintu allegedly stabbing Sandeep multiple times. Police confirmed that the victim sustained seven stab wounds, including three in his stomach.
Sandeep was taken to Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital and later admitted to Maharaja Agrasen Hospital in Punjabi Bagh, where he passed away on Wednesday. The police have charged Chintu with murder, and further investigation into the case is ongoing. Sandeep’s father, Brijesh Singh, expressed frustration at the police's decision to arrest only the food stall owner, stating that his son had been stabbed by multiple assailants.
