During the brawl, the accused allegedly attacked the victim and his friend with a knife, resulting in the victim sustaining severe injuries. The victim was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries during treatment. The accused fled the scene after the incident, but was later arrested by the police.
The incident has once again highlighted the issue of violence against police personnel, who are often at the receiving end of public anger and frustration. The Delhi Police and the Uttar Pradesh Police have both expressed condolences to the victim’s family and promised to bring the perpetrator to justice.
Further details on the incident are not available at this time. However, incidents of violence against police personnel have been on the rise in recent years in India. Police officers are often targeted by criminals and angry mobs during protests and riots.
In 2019, the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) released a report that showed that there were over 300 cases of attacks on police personnel in Delhi alone in that year. The report also revealed that the number of cases of attacks on police personnel had increased by 27% in India between 2017 and 2018.
In response to the rising incidents of violence against police personnel, the government has taken several steps to improve the safety and security of police officers. These include providing better training and equipment, increasing the number of police stations and personnel, and introducing tougher laws and penalties for those who attack police officers. However, despite these efforts, incidents of violence against police personnel continue to occur.
