A 42-year-old man was bludgeoned to death by his younger brother who was infuriated because the former had touched his car, police said Thursday.
Ravinder, 36 murdered his brother Jagminder by repeatedly hitting him with an iron road May 15 in north Delhi’s Auchandi village near Bawana.
“The older brother touched the accused’s Maruti Omni van and this petty incident led to an argument between the two. In the heat of the moment, Ravinder got an iron rod and started hitting his brother,” said a police official.
“Jagminder was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was declared dead by the doctors,” added the official.
Ravinder who is a driver by profession, was arrested Wednesday on a tip off.
