In a moment of rage, Haldar drew a small knife from his pocket and stabbed Girad, who was hit on the thigh. Soon after the incident Girad fled from the spot. Staff of Ganeshpeth police station gave chase to Haldar as he was fleeing with knife. However, Haldar managed to run faster than the police and escaped.
The cops later searched for victim and find Girad laying on the ground in a lane adjacent to Jayshree Talkies. He was taken to hospital where he died due to excessive bleeding.
Ganeshpeth police later traced and arrested Haldar. He works in the cotton market as labourer and booked him under Section 302 of Indian Penal Code.
