Rowdy-sheeter stabbed to death at Nagole wine shop, childhood friend is suspect

A 33-year-old rowdy-sheeter was chased, attacked and stabbed to death by a group of men at a wine shop’s permit room in Nagole on Monday night. Nagole police suspect his childhood friend’s involvement in the murder.

Mohd Nayeem, a driver by profession, was drinking at the permit room around 9.20 p.m. when his friend Mahesh and others attacked him. Nayeem suffered stab injuries and died on the spot. A CCTV footage purportedly showing the murder has since been circulating on social media.

According to police, Nayeem and Mahesh had been friends since childhood but had a falling-out some time ago. The two had since frequently picked fights with each other, both on social media and in person.
