  "account": "In Bengaluru's Kenchenahalli area, a 30-year-old painter named Amit Kumar was fatally stabbed by a carpenter, Sunil Kumar, according to police reports. The incident occurred on Sunday following an argument that began over cooking practices at a newly built house. Amit, originally from Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh, and Sunil, also from the same region, were both working on the construction site. Police confirmed that four workers, comprising three carpenters and a painter, resided and worked at the site. Sunil, allegedly under the influence of alcohol, initiated a physical altercation with Amit, which intensified when Amit allegedly struck Sunil. In response, Sunil allegedly retrieved a kitchen knife and stabbed Amit multiple times. Amit succumbed to his injuries shortly thereafter. The Rajarajeshwari Nagar police swiftly arrived at the scene, conducted an investigation, and arrested Sunil. Ongoing inquiries are being conducted.",
