The superintendent of police, speaking to the media, said the accused was filing petitions in courts trying to delay the trial. However, the prosecution was giving strong counters with a sole objective of doing justice to the victim. He said that there were eyewitnesses and investigating officials gathered scientific evidence to establish the role of the accused.

The IPS officer informed that the scientific evidence video clip was sent to the forensic lab for verifying its veracity. He stated that eyewitnesses were being produced before the court as part of the trial which began on September 26. He further stated that a plea to transfer the case to another court, made by the prime accused, was pending.

Syed Zameer (62), one of the injured and former municipal councillor, succumbed to wounds while undergoing treatment in a hospital of Hyderabad December 26. Syed Mannan and Motheshan were recovered. The three sustained injuries when Farooq indiscriminately opened firing against them and attacked them with a knife in full public view following a tiff over a cricket match.
