A 21-year-old youth was pushed to death from the fifth floor of a Paying Guest (PG) accommodation at DlF Phase-3. He has been identified as Ramesh Singh Bisht.
Bisht had complained to the owner of the PG about electricity and water supply that was being denied. Infuriated at his complaint, the owner and his cohorts pushed him from the balcony. He died on the spot. The incident was reported on Wednesday night.
Ramesh, a resident of Uttarakhand, was pursuing a skill development course to work with a hotel chain, the police said.
According to the police, on Wednesday night, the victim approached Satbir Singh, who was running the guest house, regarding problems over supply of water and electricity which was persisting over the last three to four days.
Ramesh and some other residents of the PG called up Satbir to complain that there was no water and electricity and they are facing many problems due to an absence of basic amenities.
After some time, Satbir reached the PG along with his two sons and eight to ten other people and starting fighting with Ramesh and the other boys. During the scuffle, Satbir allegedly threw Ramesh from the balcony of the fifth floor.
A badly injured Ramesh was immediately rushed to the nearest private hospital by the other students of the PG but he was declared dead on arrival.
