A 49-year-old man was killed over a dispute for expulsion from a job in Mankhurd, Mumbai on Friday night. Two people have been arrested, while two others are absconding. Mankhurd police is currently investigating the case.
On Friday night, after having dinner, Raja Dilavar Shaikh went for a walk and got into quarrel with the four accused. He was then brutally assaulted by them. Shaikh ran for help to the police, but fell down in the station premises and was rushed to the hospital where he was declared dead before admission.
Police sources said Shaikh was residing at Lallu Bhai compound and was working as a supervisor of garbage dumping vehicles. He was also a member of Maharashtra Samarth Kaamgaar Sena.
