The incident took place in Delhi\u2019s Farsh Bazar area.<\/p>\n
The deceased was identified as Soni, a resident of Bhikam Singh Colony in Farsh Bazar area.<\/p>\n
Sharing the details, police said that on Friday at 10.59 p.m., information regarding a stabbing incident was received.<\/p>\n
\u201cActing on the call, the police team reached the spot and found injured Soni in her room. She had 2-3 cut marks on her left hand and a small wound on her stomach,\u201d said Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara) Surendra Choudhary.<\/p>\n
Soni was immediately taken to Hedgewar Hospital where she was declared brought dead by the doctors. During the initial probe, it was revealed that Soni and her husband Satbir had a fight with their neighbour, his wife and their 15-year-old daughter.<\/p>\n
Further investigation revealed that at about 7.30 p.m., Soni had a confrontation with her neighbour\u2019s wife and daughter over filling water from the common tap on the first floor of the house.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuring the altercation, Soni twisted the girl\u2019s hand, prompting the girl to seek treatment at Dr Hedgewar Hospital. The girl was treated as a non-Medico Legal Case (MLC) patient, and an X-ray of her hand was conducted. Subsequently, the girl and her mother returned to their room and engaged in another altercation with Soni and her husband, Satbir. During this second altercation, Soni was stabbed by the girl,\u201d said the DCP. \u201cThe apprehended girl will be presented before the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB),\u201d the DCP said, adding that there are four rooms on the first floor of the house and three rooms are occupied by three separate families and the owner kept a room for his use.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll the occupants of these four rooms use a common toilet and a common tap. There is a small space near the tap which is used by all the tenants for washing clothes and utensils,\u201d said the DCP.<\/p>\n
According to the probe, on the day of the incident, the mother of the juvenile was filling water in a tub for washing clothes but Soni also wanted to wash her utensils, so she removed the tub before it got filled.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the mother of the juvenile had to leave for work soon, she wanted to wash her clothes and an argument happened between the two. In the evening, the argument again started when the deceased\u2019s husband Satbir came home and started abusing the family of the juvenile after consuming liquor,\u201d said the DCP.<\/p>\n
As per the investigation conducted so far, the police have come to know that such types of arguments have happened earlier also between the tenants as they use a common toilet and washing area.<\/p>\n
