Delhi Teen Stabbed To Death By Friends For Denying Treat For His New Phone

Three boys, studying in classes 9 to 11, are alleged to have stabbed to death a fellow student who allegedly refused to treat them to eatables after buying a new phone in Shakarpur around 7pm on Monday, police said.

The victim’s mother said the boy, a student of Class 9 of a government school, did not go to school on Monday and left home around 5pm. “He didn’t mention where he was going but he usually went out with his friends in the evening. We didn’t know he had gone to buy a phone of where he got the money from,” she said, seeking strict punishment for the accused and for them to be tried as adults.

According to the police, a patrol officer saw bloodstains near an eatery around 7.15pm and questioned locals, who said a group of boys stabbed another minor, and he was taken to hospital. The Lok Nayak Hospital informed police an hour later that a 16-year-old boy was brought dead to the hospital.
