In Dadar, Ankush Ambekar was beaten to death by a group of assailants in the Nako Sayaji Wadi area on Sunday, an official said.
Ambekar had a dispute with one of the alleged accused, Gaurav Sanas, and while he was on his way to meet a friend, a group of people intercepted him and assaulted him brutally in the presence of his wife.
He sustained severe injuries in the attack and died while undergoing treatment at KEM Hospital in Parel, the official said.
Based on a complaint lodged by the victim’s wife, the Dadar police registered a case and arrested seven accused, and efforts are underway to nab others involved in the attack.
In a similar incident, Naresh Vaghela, a senior citizen, died following an assault stemming from a parking dispute near Dadar Tata Bridge on Monday.
Vaghela had objected to the manner in which a vehicle was parked, leading to an argument with the accused, Sahil Ghadge and Shahbaz Sheikh, the official said.
According to the police, the argument escalated, and the duo allegedly assaulted Vaghela in front of his wife. He was taken to KEM Hospital, where he was declared dead.
The two accused have been arrested, he added.
