The main accused in this case were relative Hrithik (Pigdambar), his friend Vikrant (Rau), Hariom (Shajapur) and Hrithik&#8217;s younger brother who were arrested. It was alleged that Hrithik and Vikrant had put the child Harsh in the car, stuffed a cloth in his mouth and taped him to death. The mastermind of the incident, Hrithik, is the nephew of the deceased child&#8217;s father Jitendra, who lived in a separate room in Pigdambar. Despite this, Hrithik, along with his friend Vikrant, kidnapped Jitendra&#8217;s son Harsh and killed him. He wanted a ransom of Rs 4 crore but when he feared getting caught, he killed the kidnapped child Harsh.
