The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on Sunday carried out a bulldozer action against a property linked to an accused in the Uttam Nagar murder case, officials said.

Police have so far apprehended seven people including a minor, in connection with the case, in which a 25-year-old man was beaten to death during a clash between two neighbours from different communities on Holi.

The incident triggered massive protests in the area as angered public blocked a major road and set ablaze vehicles on Friday. The security has been tightened in the area.

As per a report by PTI, 25-year-old Tarun was killed in an altercation that reportedly began after an 11-year-old girl threw a balloon filled with coloured water onto the road, which splashed on a woman from another community. The situation escalated into a dispute between the neighbours after the woman allegedly hurled abuses.

Situation escalated into violent clash and several people from both sides sustained injuries during the fight. Tarun suffered serious injuries and was rushed to a hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.

According to sources cited by PTI, members of the Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad staged a protest under the Uttam Nagar East Metro station. During the demonstration, a car and a motorcycle were set on fire, and traffic remained blocked for several hours.

Amid the rising tensions, the Delhi Police have intensified security arrangements in the area to maintain law and order and prevent any further tension.
