New Delhi: An African national was allegedly beaten to death by a group of men in Delhi's Kishangarh area, near Vasant Kunj on Friday. 

The 23-year-old had been identified as Oliva from Congo and had come to Kishangarh in Vasant Kunj for some work when he got into an argument with three to four persons. 

The argument later led to a violent fight, after which the African youth was chased and beaten with stones.

When the police reached the spot to rescue the youth, they found him wounded and bleeding. He was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he later succumbed to injuries.

The police have launched a probe into the matter and are trying to ascertain the motive behind the attack. The cops are also looking for any CCTVs that might have recorded the brutal act.

This comes just months after a Tanzanian woman was allegedly stripped and beaten on the streets in Bengaluru after a road accident.
