The incident took place in the Anagarh Toria area of Narayan Bagh Paharia sector under the Civil Lines police station area of Chhatarpur. A young man named Arbaaz entered the neighbour’s house with the intention of theft. 12-year-old boy was present in the house at the time. When the boy stopped Arbaaz from committing theft, Arbaaz attacked the minor.
Arbaaz didn’t just stab the kid once or twice, but a shocking 26 times. To make matters worse, as he fled the scene, believing the boy to be dead, Arbaaz covered him with a cloth to conceal any traces of blood, providing himself with time to escape unnoticed.
