According to reports, the altercation began over splitting a food invoice amounting to Rs 10,000. The victim was accompanied by four friends, two of whom were minors.

On May 31, the victim organized a birthday party at a roadside eatery called 'dhaba.' As the celebrations unfolded, tensions arose among the group regarding the sharing of the bill. However, the victim decided to settle the matter by personally paying the entire amount.
