A 41-year-old security guard was attacked with a sickle by a former colleague following an alleged dispute over pending salary in Mumbai, the police have said, reported news agency PTI.
Victim Deepak Kalpnath Dubey was working at a building in the Kandivali area when he was targeted by the accused Lalit Premsagar Tiwari (26), an official said.
Tiwari earlier worked as a security guard at the building, but his company removed him allegedly over negligence and repeated complaints against him, the official said. The company, which also withheld Tiwari's salary, later kept Dubey in his place, reported PTI.
On the morning of July 13, Tiwari went to the building and got into a heated argument with Dubey over his pending salary. During the argument, he pulled out a sickle from his bag and slashed Dubey on his head, leg, abdomen, and hand, the official said.
After being alerted, the Kandivali police reached the spot and took Dubey to the civic-run Shatabdi Hospital. Tiwari was subsequently arrested, reported PTI.
A case has been registered against the accused under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for attempted murder, the official added.
