New Delhi [India], December 28 (ANI): A 20-year-old Delhi University student had a narrow escape with death after he jumped from the fourth floor of a building to allegedly escape an assault by a group of men in Mukherjee Nagar, police said on Wednesday.
The incident occurred on the intervening night of December 20-21.
The youth suffered severe injuries and was later admitted to a hospital, and is currently fine now, added the police.
