New Delhi: Nine people including four juveniles have been arrested for killing a 40-year-old dentist in Delhi's Vikaspuri area.
The victim has been identified as Dr Pankaj Narang, who lived with his wife and son in the Vikaspuri area.
According to police, Narang was taking a walk outside his residence on Wednesday night when the juvenile and Naseer brushed him on their motorcycle. That led to a scuffle and the duo left the spot abandoning the motorbike there.
However, they returned later accompanied by around a dozen more persons and allegedly attacked the dentist with sticks and rods at his residence. They also thrashed people who came to his rescue.
While locals called police at around 12 AM, the alleged assailants had fled before they arrived on the scene. Narang, who sustained a deep wound to his skull, was rushed to a hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
A case under charges of murder, attempt to murder, trespassing and rioting has been registered in this connection, police said.
Meanwhile, some locals told police that the scuffle originated after the doctor's son, who was playing outside the house, threw a ball which hit one of the accused. The doctor came to his son's rescue and got involved in the scuffle. DCP Kumar, however, refuted these claims.
