Karnataka Man Stabbed to Death After Dispute Over Chicken Pieces at PartyPreviousNext

In Karnataka's Belagavi district, a dispute over chicken pieces during a party among workers escalated into a fatal stabbing. Seetharam and Arun, both from Uttar Pradesh and employed at the same steel company, argued over the amount of chicken consumed. Arun allegedly stabbed Seetharam in the chest while intoxicated.
