Man Kills Professor Over Train Dispute
A man named Omkar Shinde got into a fight with a college professor, Alok Kumar Singh, on a train in Mumbai.
The professor told Shinde to be careful because there were women in front of them.
Shinde felt embarrassed and angry.
When they got off the train, Shinde took out a knife and stabbed the professor many times.
The professor died, and Shinde ran away.
The police found Shinde quickly and arrested him.
Shinde said he didn't mean to kill the professor, just to teach him a lesson.
The police say Shinde has a bad temper.
He lives with his family in Mumbai and runs a small jewelry shop.
The police are keeping him in jail until January 29.
Omkar Shinde, 27, stabbed and killed a 32-year-old college professor, Alok Kumar Singh, at Malad Railway Station in Mumbai.
