It has now come to light that Sharath stabbed Vijay after a fight between the two over some issue. In fact the accused and his family members had earlier tried to hide their guilt by pretending to help Vijay’s family. It was the family of Sharath which had earlier informed the locals that Vijay was found in a critical state due to excessive intake of alcohol.
The deceased Vijay was a local cricketer and even played in state level tournaments.
