What Happened in the Delhi Chittaranjan Park Murder?

The incident took place at a flat in Tara Apartments in Alaknanda, near Chittaranjan Park. The accused, Asad, came home and got into an argument with the victims. 

The argument soon turned into a brutal fight. He allegedly took out a knife and attacked Karan multiple times, killing him on the spot. When Rakesh tried to protect his son, Asad also stabbed him. After the attack, he ran away from the crime scene.

Police said they got a call about the incident around 9:30 pm and rushed to the spot. The father and son were found badly injured and lying in blood. Delhi Chittaranjan park murder victims were taken to Max Hospital, where doctors declared them dead. 

“It’s been found that a father and son have been murdered; they were killed by being stabbed with a knife. It was their own neighbour who committed the murder. And there is another family member who is currently injured,” Municipal Councillor for Ward No. 171(Chittaranjan Park), Ashu Thakur told ANI, adding that “police are investigating the incident where a father and son were stabbed to death.” 

Soon after, police launched a manhunt. They checked CCTV footage and tracked Asad’s escape route, and later arrested him.

Police said the accused came to the victim’s house with a plan and attacked Karan, Rakesh, and Rahul several times, targeting their neck and other body parts.
