"Relating to the murder of Kartik about two years back, an accused, Preethesh, continues to be in jail. Relatives of the main witness Kishore, namely Keshava Suvarna and Pramod had spoken to Kishore, Radhakrishna along with his friend, Prajwal, had made an effort to convince Kishore to adduce evidence in favour of Preethesh at Beeramale Gudde three days back. During the discussions, a quarrel had broken out between them. Because of a sense of anger emanating from this incident, accused Kishore along with friends attacked me," Radhakrishna stated.
