Sonbhadra (UP), Apr 18: A youth allegedly stabbed his friend to death for harassing his sister in a village in Uttar Pradesh’s Sonbhadra district, police said on Friday.
The issue had previously led to tensions between the two and on Thursday night, the youth allegedly killed the teenager, Karamchand Bind at Domariya village. Arjun Chauhan, the accused, has been arrested, they said.
“The accused was angry with the victim for allegedly harassing his sister for a long time, despite repeated warnings,” said Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP) Tribhuvan Nath Tripathi.
“The victim did not stop his behaviour even after several warnings, which infuriated the accused,” Tripathi said.
