Suresh and Ram confessed that they have been committing the crime to make some quick money for quite some time now along with the three others. They admitted that they hunted wild animals that come to quench their thirst at an irrigation tank on the outskirts of the village, and used to camp by the tank at night. Some locals spotted the animals captured by the hunters and alerted the cops.

The foresters booked a case and took up investigations.
