 …. that I live with my family and study in house number xxxxxxr. Alam and Raja
are my friends. On 21.02.2021, in the evening time around 7.00 - 7.10PM I went
across the street of Metrajan Shop to Uncle Chai Wale for drinking coffee. At that

sat on the scooty after placing it. After some time, our friend Alam also came there.
After about 5-10 minutes, about 8-10 boys came from Hatwara road in a herd and
started fighting with Raja and Alam in the street. When I started escaping from
there, they took me too and started beating me. They hit the marble stone on my
head and mouth. During this time, three-four more boys came from the other side in
the street, one of them took a knife out of his pocket and stabbed Alam two times in
his stomach and chest. I had run away barefoot towards Hatwada Road after saving
my life. In this incident, my mobile too fell, causing it to break. At that time there
was a stampede in the street. When I came back at the street of Metrajan Shop, to
get my mobile, I saw that Alam was lying on the ground in a sun-drenched state of
unconsciousness and a lot of blood came out from his body and spread on the
ground. During the incident there, Alam's younger brother Moen had also come,
who along with Raja Khan, picked up Alam from there and took him to the LML
