Initially, the police had assumed the incident to be a road accident. However, the family of the victims claimed that it was a planned murder made to look like a road accident. They filed a complaint stating that the uncle-nephew duo had been receiving threats for becoming witnesses in a murder case.
Upon receiving the complaint, Superintendent of Police Rakesh Ranjan formed a ten-member team led by Ashok Priyadarshi. The autopsy report confirmed that the victims were indeed murdered. The two accused, Sikendra Kumar and Jitendra Kumar, were subsequently arrested and produced before a local court. They have been remanded in judicial custody for 14 days.
