Thane: In a shocking incident, a 24-year-old boy tragically died on his birthday after his friends threw him off the fourth-floor balcony following a dispute over shortage of alcohol at the party in the Ulhasnagar area of Thane, on Monday.
Vitthalwadi police have registered a case in the matter.
The victim has been identified as Kartik Vayal and the incident took place at his house on his birthday.

Kartik had invited his three friends for birthday celebration at his home on July 1.
As the party went on, there was a bickering over lack of booze which resulted in fisticuffs.
After some heated arguments and brawl, Kartik reportedly hit Nilesh with a bottle. However, the trio - Dheeraj, Nilesh and Sagar - pounced on him and threw him from the balcony, resulting in his death.
