Ramchander, a retired RTC employee, was killed in his home when the accused, Anil, allegedly slit his throat. Investigation revealed that the accused held a grudge against Ramchander and his son due to a family dispute.

The accused’s sister had been married to Ramchander’s son Trilokchander some 20 years ago, but the marriage ended due to issues with the son’s behaviour.
