In a chilling case of friendship turned fatal, two close friends died after stabbing each other during a violent argument in a public park in West Delhi&rsquo;s Tilak Nagar area on Sunday night. The victims, identified as Sandeep and Arif, were both residents of B-Block, Khyala, and known to be long-time companions.
Police said the incident unfolded around midnight, when a heated disagreement between the two escalated into a deadly knife fight. Both men succumbed to their injuries at the scene, leaving behind devastated families and a stunned community.
Responding to an alert, teams from Tilak Nagar and Khyala police stations reached the location and cordoned off the area for investigation. While the motive behind the altercation is still unclear, officers are probing possible personal or financial disputes.
Both victims were married, had children, and lived on the same street. Sandeep was involved in property dealings and had a background as a gym trainer. Locals say the two were often seen together and shared a strong bond, which made the incident even more shocking.
The bodies were sent to Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital for post-mortem examination. Police are currently questioning family members, neighbours, and eyewitnesses to piece together what led to the violent confrontation.
The double murder has sent shockwaves through the area, with residents struggling to come to terms with how a personal disagreement between friends ended in mutual destruction.
