A 28-year-old man died and several others injured in a scuffle that broke out after one of them urinated in front of a grocery shop in south-east Delhi, police said on Saturday. The deceased has been identified as Amandeep Singh.
According to the police, the incident took place at C-Block market in east of Kailash on late Friday night. Brothers Vinay and Vimal had closed their shop and were sitting outside when an argument broke out between them and Jagjeet Singh over him urinating in front of their shop, said R.P.
