In Delhi, a 38-year-old man was killed with bricks on Friday while attempting to defend his son from a mob of boys. According to the police, the event happened in Okhla Phase 2’s Sanjay Colony neighbourhood.

More on the bricked assault

Mohammad Hanif and the victim’s two young sons were hurt in the act of violence.

As per reports, the 14-year-old son of Hanif went outside to retrieve his bike that was parked in a street at 11:00 on Friday night. It was occupied by a gang of four or five boys who were blocking his path. They refused to move when he requested them to. After that, there was an argument that swiftly turned into a fight.

When Hanif heard the commotion, he rushed outside to investigate. This is when he witnessed the boys attacking his son. The boys, however, turned on him and began whacking him with bricks.

After receiving an SOS call, a police team swiftly arrived on the scene and took the man to the trauma unit of AIIMS, where the medical staff pronounced him dead.

The investigation is underway

The police have opened an investigation and are looking for the accused.
