Soon after he returned home, he heard a quarrel going on outside. He went there to intervene and resolve the matter peacefully. However, an argument broke out between him and the accused, when both Fardeen and his cousin and Armaan were also present. The accused and his brother then allegedly called their friends to attack them."
Salim also alleged that the accused saw the colour on his clothes from the Ganpati festival and questioned him about roaming with colours despite being Muslim and that was the reason behind the stabbing.
