Apparently around 10 persons had gone to the wholesale liquor distributor there to pick up some alcohol where one Mehboob Sahimula alias Bichu, a 41-year-old resident of Davorlim, was also purchasing alcohol. However, as Bichu was smoking, the group objected to it and this led to an argument resulting in the group beating Bichu. They threw bottles at each other and somebody from the group even stabbed Bichu with a knife.
