As the bike got disbalanced, the other two too fell on the ground and a scuffle ensued between the two groups, a senior police officer said.


Since no one gave any statement at the time, a case was registered under section 308 (Attempt to commit culpable homicide) and 34 (common intention) of the Indian Penal Code on DD entry at Ranjit Nagar Police Station and an investigation was taken up, said Shweta Chauhan, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Central).


On Saturday night, Nitesh succumbed to his injuries, she said. Meanwhile, the police have identified the three accused who are absconding, she added.



"The footage of the incident reveal that the quarrel was started by Nitesh and Alok. However, in the end, the other party overpowered them and assaulted them. Both Nitesh and Alok have previous criminal records," the DCP said. The exact reason for the fight is not clear, she said.
