Vickey had borrowed Rs 50,000 from Maneesh, the accused told the police during interrogation, they said. Even through the money was returned with interest 20 days ago, Maneesh and Vickey had quarrelled over the issue. After a few days, Vickey again borrowed money from Montu, this time Rs 15,000.
The amount along with interest was due for payment on October 19, which is when the three decided to kill Maneesh, officials said. Vickey, with the help of his two accomplices, allegedly shot Maneesh and threw his body in a forested area in Didouli village. On Sunday, Maneesh breathed his last at a private hospital.

Police lodged an FIR under sections 353, 341 of IPC against 150 unknown people for damaging government property and manhandling the sentry of the police station. "We will analyse CCTV footages and identify all accused persons. Nobody will be spared," SSP Krishna said.
