A 15-year-old boy was stabbed by two minors, aged 15 and 16, after making a derogatory comment regarding the weight of one of the boys. According to Antop Hill Police, the victim allegedly insulted another boy by calling him “fat”, which triggered a physical altercation.

Residents of Antop Hill, Wadala, where all the three the boys reside as well, confirmed that the victim had referred to one of the accused minors as “mota” (fat), claiming it was meant as a harmless joke. According to police, the boy did not initially react and had asked the complainant to refrain from making such derogatory comments towards him.
