Two brothers were arrested for allegedly killing a 21-year-old man following an argument over using a public toilet in northwest Delhi's Ashok Vihar area, police said on Tuesday.
The incident took place on Monday afternoon, a senior police officer said.
The dead was identified as Raja Babu, a resident of Satsang Colony in Ashok Vihar, police said.
Preliminary investigation suggested that Raja Babu had an argument with the accused living in the same locality over use of a public toilet, Deputy Commissioner of Police (northwest) Usha Rangnani said.
"Raja Babu was previously involved in criminal cases. He had threatened the two brothers with a surgical blade, after which they thrashed him and caused injuries to head and chest. Raja Babu succumbed to injuries during treatment," Ms Rangnani said.
A case was registered at Ashok Vihar police station and accused Mohit (19) and Sahil (22) have been arrested, police said.
