Police said the reason for the attack was business rivalry, and not the demand for repayment of a loan as was previously suspected.

The victims were drinking liquor at a shop in Batasingaram when the accused came in an autorickshaw and attacked them. The cousins fled on their bike but the trio took an alternative route, came in the opposite direction and rammed into the two-wheeler.
