Sources said, on Saturday night, a clash broke out between two groups of people who reportedly belong to the Trinamool Congress at Arjunpur Paschimpara area in Baguiati. It is alleged that both the groups got involved in a melee and stone pelting. 

Meanwhile, cops from Baguiati Police Station reached the spot and brought the situation under control. After a few hours of the police leaving the spot, a scuffle broke out. 

This time one of the group members allegedly shutdown the power supply of the area. During the scuffle, the deceased identified as Sanjib Das alias Patla was reportedly hit by a stone and fell down. 

The accused persons from the rival group started assaulting Das. He was reportedly thrashed by them using brickbats and sticks along with fists and blows.
