At least three people were allegedly stabbed to death in separate incidents in less than 24 hours across the city, with their bodies recovered on Sunday morning, police officers said. All three victims are men, and aged between 25 and 38 years. Police are yet to make arrests in all the cases.
While police have begun investigating their deaths, the incidents point to the rising crime in Delhi, with extortions, robberies, murders, and firings reported in the recent past. The issue has also become a political flashpoint between the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over the alleged inadequate action by the Delhi Police. The Delhi Police comes under the jurisdiction of the central government, where the BJP is in power.
In the first case, an unidentified man's body with stab wounds on his face, head, and neck was recovered from the Geeta Colony flyover in north Delhi early on Sunday.
