A police officer as reported by PTI said that Zahooruddin consistently asked Shahid to settle the debt, leading to an escalating dispute between the two. The victim was involved in the shoe-making business.

Zahooruddin’s son, Sohail, filed a complaint, leading to the registration of a murder case. The police have formed teams to nab Shahid.
