A 30-year-old man was allegedly beaten to death by one of his friends over a financial dispute in Kamla Market in central Delhi on Thursday night.
According to police, the matter came to light when a man, identified as Jahangir (30), was rushed by some locals to a central Delhi hospital on Thursday night, with serious injuries on his body.
