“Bharti, after that argument, was called by the group of students, who were involved in the quarrel. Anmol went with his cousin brother Priyanshu to settle the matter. When they reached there, they attacked Anmol with a knife. He was stabbed several times and seriously injured in this incident,” said Ajay Bharti, father of the deceased.
“The cousin brother Priyanshu took Anmol to a nearby private hospital where he succumbed due to multiple stab injuries and excessive blood loss,” he said.
