A 27-year-old labourer allegedly killed his co-worker and then hanged himself following a fight over a ludo game. The Sakinaka police are in the process of registering an FIR. “We received information that two people were dead and upon reaching the spot we identified the bodies to be Saddam Hussain Rafique Alam, 27, and Mohammad Ayyaz Shaikh, 19. On further investigation, it was revealed that Saddam had allegedly stabbed Ayyaz over his neck using a pair of scissors. He then hanged himself. We suspect that Saddam was mentally ill and hence took extreme steps,” said a police officer.

According to the police, Saddam worked at an industrial unit and lived in a house in the Kajupada area of Kurla for over five to six months. The duo were employed as labourers and they used to make clothes. Gulam Hamid was their boss and he had allocated a small house for them to live in. “At night when Ayyaz went to the house, the duo played Ludo and then got into a petty fight which led Saddam to stab Ayyaz in the neck multiple times. He then hanged himself. Their bodies had been sent to Rajwadi for post-mortem and we will register an FIR in this matter soon,” said a police officer.
