An 18-year-old man was killed and four others seriously injured in a fight between two brothers allegedly over a property dispute in Shahdara, New Delhi. Police gave this information on Wednesday.

Police have identified the victims as Suhan, Faizan (19), Nisha (42), Imran (45) and Shamshad (28), all residents of Rashid Market near Shahi Masjid in Jagatpuri area, he said.

On Tuesday, police received a PCR call informing about a fight between two brothers. Police said that as soon as the team reached the spot, they found that the injured had already been taken to Dr. Hedgewar Hospital.

During initial investigation, the police found out that the fight had taken place over the shop of Saeed Ahmed.

"Sayed Ahmed has six sons, four of whom are Istekar, Zulfikar, Imran and Shamshad. They all live in the same house. Zulfikar runs a welding shop on the property. Imran wanted to sell the shop with the approval of his brothers. “Bu Zulfikar objected,” said Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara) Surendra Choudhary.

The DCP said the property dispute started following a long-standing enmity between Zulfiqar and Imran and other family members.

He said, there was a heated argument between Zulfikar and Imran which turned violent.

Zulfikar and his son Murshid stabbed his brother Imran, his wife Nisha, his sons Faizan and Suhaan and brother Shamshad, Chaudhary said.
