According to police, Raees was attacked with a sharp-edged weapon in a public area during the day, triggering panic among local residents. The CCTV footage is now part of the investigation.

Raees's daughter, Shabnam Khatoon, has accused her cousin of carrying out the murder. She alleged that the accused was a drug addict and alcoholic, and that family members often stopped him from consuming intoxicants. Patna resident Mohammad Raees was attacked in broad daylight.

"He used to say, 'I will kill him', but we did not know he would actually do something like this," Khatoon said.
