The family reported that Ajeet had come to celebrate the birthday of his nephew when he had an argument with Sonu. Ajeet's brother Ashok said that Sonu and Ajeet ended the quarrel in a short while. However, after sometime Sonu again reached there along with his friends and again an altercation ensued after which Ajeet was pushed down from the second floor.
