There, Sherif stabbed Ansari multiple times, killing him on the spot and fled. Sherif committed the murder by himself, Police added. “It was Sherif who taught Ansari tailoring. But later, he felt that he might lose his job because of Ansari. Sherif had brought Ansari to the beach on a two-wheeler by offering to buy him dinner.

An anonymous caller on Friday morning informed the Marina police about the body of a migrant youth with multiple stab injuries on the beach, opposite to the slum clearance board building.
