The incident took place on the night of June 23 aboard Train No. 90663, the Churchgate–Nalasopara Fast Local, when a dispute escalated between 22-year-old Mayank Lohar and another passenger over closing a train door amid heavy rainfall. The altercation occurred while the train was in motion between Andheri and Borivali stations.
During the confrontation, the accused allegedly stabbed Mayank Lohar in the abdomen, leaving him critically injured. The accused then fled the scene before the train came to a complete halt.
According to Western Railway’s official account, the train arrived at Borivali Station Platform No. 6 at 11:04 PM. The accused managed to escape the train just before it fully stopped.
