Delhi: Student stabs senior to death over insult to mother in Okhla

NEW DELHI: A 17-year-old boy was allegedly stabbed to death by his school junior for allegedly using foul language against his mother in southeast Delhi’s Okhla.

Police said that the victim, a student of Class XI, was stabbed after school hours by his junior from Class X. The junior boy has been apprehended.

The incident took place outside the government senior secondary school in Tehkhand on Friday afternoon.

A police team, which reached the spot after the incident, took the boy to a hospital where he died during treatment. Medical reports revealed that the boy had three stab wounds. A crime and forensics team was called to the spot for a detailed inspection and a case of murder was registered.

Preliminary probe revealed that the victim had allegedly used foul language against the mother of the other boy recently. “On Friday, the Class X student asked his senior to apologise to his mother but the latter refused. This sparked an argument between the two boys leading to a fight. During the fight, the younger boy took out a knife and stabbed the other boy multiple times. Both the boys were in school uniforms at the time of incident,” said a senior police officer.
