Huma Qureshi’s Cousin Killed in Delhi Over Parking Dispute - Delhi Crime News

In a shocking incident from Delhi’s Nizamuddin area, Bollywood actress Huma Qureshi’s cousin, Asif Qureshi, lost his life following a heated argument over parking. The dispute turned violent late Thursday night in the Bhogal Bazaar Lane of Jangpura.

The Incident

According to police, the confrontation began when Asif returned home from work and found a scooter parked directly in front of his gate. He asked the owner, a neighbour, to move it aside. Instead of complying, tempers flared, and the argument quickly escalated.

Police say that two brothers, Gautam (18) and Ujjwal (19), attacked Asif during the quarrel. Ujjwal allegedly struck first, using a sharp weapon. The injuries proved fatal, and Asif was rushed to the hospital, where doctors declared him dead on arrival.

Suspects Arrested

Both suspects were arrested within hours of the crime. Police confirmed that the accused are neighbours of the victim. Investigators believe the killing may have been premeditated, as there had been previous clashes between the victim and the accused over parking issues.

Family’s Allegations

Asif’s wife, Sainaz Qureshi, told police that the attackers had earlier fought with her husband over similar disputes. She claimed the accused had targeted him intentionally, waiting for an opportunity to cause harm.

“This was not an accident. They had fought with him before. That night, they abused him and then killed him with a sharp weapon,” she said.

Another relative, Javed, supported her claim, stating that there were at least two earlier incidents where the accused had tried to provoke Asif into a fight.

A Tragic End to a Petty Dispute

What started as a minor disagreement over a parked scooter has ended in tragedy. Residents of the neighbourhood remain in shock, with many questioning how such small disputes can spiral into deadly violence.

Police officials urged the public to avoid letting trivial matters escalate, emphasising that such disputes should be resolved peacefully.

Investigation Ongoing

The Delhi Police are continuing their investigation to determine whether the attack was spontaneous or planned in advance. The weapon used in the attack has been recovered and sent for forensic examination.

Authorities are also reviewing CCTV footage from the area to piece together the exact sequence of events leading up to the crime.
