New Delhi, January 12: Demanding money for 'kebab' cost a 22-year-old youth from Jharkhand his life in east Delhi when two youths allegedly stabbed him with the skewer used for preparing the dish.

Shabir, the victim, worked at a meat shop during the day and ran the eatery in east Delhi's Kalyanpuri in the night, to earn money for his poor family back home.

It all started at around 9 pm yesterday when some youths came to his shop and ordered kebab.

However, an argument broke out over payment soon which led to a scuffle between the youths and Shabir.

One of the two men snatched the skewer used for preparing kebab and stabbed Shabir before fleeing from the spot.

He was rushed to Lal Bahadur Hospital where he was declared brought dead.

Two youths Sonu and Babu were arrested in connection with the case, police said.

A senior police official said Shabir belonged to a poor family and to earn money he used to work in a meat shop during the day and in the night ran his own kebab shop.

He was staying in a rented accommodation in Kalyanpuri.

This is the second incident of crime reported in the city with regard to payment of food bill.

On Monday night, a Punjab Police Constable allegedly opened fire at a roadside eatery owner in Chanakyapuri following an argument over paying the bill. However, the eatery owner escaped by a whisker.

The capital had seen 543 murders last year out of which 17 per cent were due to sudden provocation or trivial reasons.

The murders were committed for reasons ranging from argument over street dogs, buying curd, crying of infant, beating drums, playing cricket and consuming liquor.

New Delhi, Jul 17: The first FIR against Volkswagen and Audi in India for installing cheat devices in their cars to misrepresent emissions has been filed in Noida.

The FIR was filed by Noida resident Aniljit Singh against the top officials of Volkswagen and Audi in India and their headquarters in Germany. These include Rahil Ansari, Brand Director, Audi India, Balbir Singh Dhillon, Head, Audi India, and Bram Schot, Chairman, Audi AG.

The FIR reviewed by media agency cites forgery, cheating and criminal conspiracy under various sections of the Indian Penal Code.

The complaint has cited the global emissions scandal where VW was found to be installing a cheat device in its cars, in the absence of which, the cars produced 10-40 times emissions beyond the permissible limits.

The complainant said that in 2018 he had purchased seven Audi cars worth crores of rupees. At the time of taking the delivery, the complainant said that he inquired if the cheat devices were installed in India and he was told by the company that they were not, as in India's emission norms were not as stringent and the country being a growing market for Audi, no such device was implanted.

The complaint said that the authorities in India observed that Audi cars' emissions for nitrogen oxide were 5-8 times the permissible limits and after the National Green Tribunal imposed a penalty of Rs 500 crore on VW, the complainant realised that he had been duped of his hard earned money.

He alleged that the accused persons had misrepresented the complainant by forging the documents and devices and caused wrongful gains to themselves and wrongful losses to the complainant. These officials had made wrong records to capture the market, with malafide intent and under a pre-planned conspiracy had induced and defrauded the complainant.

The accused persons are guilty of cheating the customers and have induced the complainant to part with hard earned money for sub-standard cars. The accused are also guilty of forging the documents on which they had sought various clearances.

The complainant has demanded that the allegations may be thoroughly investigated by a senior official.
