A 35-year-old Ghatkopar resident died after a neighbour slit his throat for allegedly trying to stop a fight on Wednesday. Police officials said that the victim, identified as Shashikant alias Munna Nagendra, was asleep when he heard commotion outside.

According to a report in Hindustan Times, Nagendra noticed that his neighbours, Ram Shiromani Yadav (55) and Nanhe Yadav (40), were arguing over some issue right at his doorstep. When he saw Nanhe trying to hit Ram Shiromani, Nagendra stepped out and tried to separate the two men.
