Mumbai: A 29-year-old security guard was allegedly beaten to death with a heavy iron rod by another security guard in Mumbai’s Wadala area late on May 9, reportedly over a long-standing dispute linked to an alleged love affair in their native village in Bihar.

Deceased Identified as Anshukumar Anil Singh From Katihar

The deceased has been identified as Anshukumar Anil Singh, a native of Katihar, Bihar, who was employed as a security guard with a private agency and posted at a construction site on G.D. Ambekar Marg in Wadala (West). He was residing at the same site along with other security personnel.

According to the FIR, the accused, Abhishekkumar Singh, a native of Bhagalpur, Bihar, worked as a security guard in a nearby building. Police said the accused allegedly harboured resentment over a dispute related to a village girl’s alleged love affair that had taken place around two months ago.
