    Murder for cigarettes: Delhi Police solve 'blind-case' in a month

    Killed for not sharing cigarette? Yes, that's exactly what happened in Delhi's Subhash Place a month ago, when a 21-year-old was killed by three people, including a juvenile, all of whom got caught on Saturday. Delhi Police had termed this case as "blind" as it was bereft of evidence. The only clue on which they started their probe was that the accused were bike-borne.

    Victim was smoking with friend when the trio approached him

    Mohit Kumar, a graphic-designing student, was smoking with his friend when he was approached by the trio who asked him to share a smoke. He refused. A fight ensued, but suddenly, one of them took out a knife and started stabbing Mohit, while the other two held him. Mohit's friend ran to call for help, but the trio fled and also stole Mohit's phone.

    Informer overheard juvenile boasting about his "feat"

    Mohit's friend informed cops that the accused fled on a bike after the act. Cops scanned CCTV footage and interrogated around 500 people but reached an almost dead-end. Suddenly on Saturday, someone informed them the juvenile was boasting about his "feat" near a shop. Cops rushed and apprehended him, who then led them to his accomplices Irshad (19) and Vishal (22).
