The incident occurred on May 1, when Avtar Singh (40), son of Balbir Singh, was hit on his head with an iron rod and died because of excessive bleeding during a scuffle between two groups, who staked their claim over the piece of land in Greater Kailash locality.

Police remain committed to solving the crime and attacking its root causes, he said.
Eight people have been detained in connection with the case so far, he said.
