The arrested youths have been identified as Anmol, Yuvraj, alias Malli; and Yuvraj Singh Cheema.
“The three accused and Tanveer were involved in a dispute that initially began over a minor altercation. The situation later escalated into a violent attack that resulted in the teenager’s death,” the SP added.
On the basis of statements given by the victim’s family members, an FIR was registered at the Tripuri police station and the youths were arrested.
