Police said Kiranpal Singh, 28, the deceased, was posted with the Govindpuri police station. They said that two of the accused — Deepak Singh alias Max, 20, and Krish Gupta, 18 — have been arrested, while a hunt is on for the third accused, identified only by his first name of Raghav alias Rocky.

Later on Saturday, Singh was given a guard of honour at the district deputy commissioner of police’s office at Sarita Vihar, with police commissioner Sanjay Arora and other top brass also present.

Police said constable Singh was on patrolling duty with two more constables, but was alone when he was attacked near Sant Ravidas Marg. Sharing details, they said that an interrogation of the accused revealed that Singh came across the three men on a two-wheeler at around 4.30am, and when the constable questioned them, they attacked him with a sharp object and left him bleeding on the street.
