JOIN USMan stabbed to death in bar for objecting to noise
A 22-year-old man was stabbed to death after he told a four-member gang not to make noise in a bar on East End Main Road in Jayanagar on Sunday afternoon.
The deceased Kishor Kumar was a resident of Byrasandra and working in a private firm.
Thilaknagar police said Kumar and his friend Yusuf Pasha had gone to East End Bar and Restaurant around 1 pm on Sunday. A transgender and others who were drinking at the adjoining table, were making a lot of noise. Around 1.55 pm, Kumar told them to speak softly.
The four suspects, Anand, Madu, Tabrez and Arpitha, came to Kumar’s table and started assaulting him. When he retaliated, Arpitha told Tabrez to kill him.
Tabrez stabbed Kumar in the chest, after which the victim collapsed. The gang then chased Yusuf who managed to escape. Yusuf then returned to the bar and saw his friend in a pool of blood. With the help of police, he rushed Kumar to hospital but doctors declared him brought dead, police said.
