A 21-year-old youth in India lost his life in a tragic incident in south Delhi’s Tigri area, reportedly over a monetary dispute involving Rs3,000. The horrific attack was captured on video and has since gone viral on social media.
The distressing video, which was recorded from across the street, depicts a man repeatedly stabbing the victim outside a shop. Shockingly, onlookers pass by without offering any help or assistance to the victim.
Despite his injuries, the victim bravely attempts to defend himself, but the attacker persists in stabbing him. The video then shows the victim lying on the road, surrounded by his own blood. Eventually, a few men come to his rescue and confront the assailant.

The victim, identified as Yusuf Ali and a resident of Sangam Vihar, was rushed to Batra Hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead, according to Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Chandan Chowdhary.
In his statement, Yusuf’s father, Sahid Ali, revealed that his son had been threatened by Shahrukh a few days earlier regarding a financial matter, added Chowdhary.
According to Sahid, Yusuf had borrowed Rs3,000 from Shahrukh, who had been demanding repayment. This information was provided by the senior police officer.
