A 26-year-old labourer died allegedly after being pushed off from the third floor of an under-construction building by a fellow worker following an altercation in east Delhi’s Geeta Colony area, police said on Tuesday.
The fellow worker was arrested on Monday. The 50-year-old accused, Netra Pal, had fled the spot after the incident, they said.
The deceased was identified as Mohammad Salman, who had allegedly borrowed a mobile charger from Pal and was not returning it. The issue led to a verbal spat and soon turned into a scuffle between the two. Pal pushed him off the third floor of an under-construction building on the NSUT campus, a senior police officer said.
The Geeta Colony police station received a call from a hospital around 1 am on Monday informing it about the incident. A police team reached the hospital and learnt that the victim, Salman, was brought there by some fellow workers, and he died during treatment.
