While one of the accused is in police custody, the other is on the run. The altercation started yesterday when the two accused came to Pintu's paan shop, asked for a pack of cigarettes but refused to pay for it. This led to an argument but the matter did not escalate yesterday. Today, the men returned to Pintu's shop in a drunk state and started arguing with him. When Pintu stepped out of his shop, they allegedly attacked him with a rod and also stabbed him. Visuals show blood spilled on the street along Pintu's shop.
