The incident took place in <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/maha-several-people-evacuated-from-low-lying-areas-in-thane-and-palghar-as-rivers-swell-23298918" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Gaibi Nagar</a> locality of the town around 6.30 pm on Tuesday, an official of Shanti Nagar police station told PTI.
Faran Sheikh, the victim, was stabbed to death when he tried to intervene after seeing some men brutally beating up a boy, he said.
Sheikh died on the spot.
One of the accused was arrested and hunt was on for the other two accused, the official added.
In another incident, Police have registered a case against three persons for allegedly beating to death a 49-year-old man after a dispute in Maharashtra`s Thane district, an official told PTI on Tuesday.
The incident took place at around 1 am on Monday when the victim while walking accidentally pushed the accused in Vitthalwadi locality of Ulhasnagar, he said.
The accused got angry and allegedly beat up the man severely, the official said quoting a complaint filed by the victim`s son.
On Monday morning, the victim`s son received a phone call from his father saying some people beat him up and he was in a hospital.
The complainant then took his father to a government hospital in Ulhasnagar, but as the victim had breathing problems, he was rushed to a civic-run hospital in Kalwa area.
As there was no oxygen bed available there, the victim was rushed to the KEM Hospital in neighbouring Mumbai where he vomitted and doctors later declared him dead, according to the FIR.
The victim`s son subsequently filed a police complaint against the three accused.
The police said an acquaintance of the deceased informed his son that he had seen the three accused beating up the victim severely.
Based on the complaint, the police early Tuesday morning registered a case against the three accused under Indian Penal Code Sections 302 (murder) and 34 (common intention), the official said.
No arrest was made so far, he said, adding a probe was on into the case.
