Idli was prepared for the five workers by one Rajanna in the morning. However, things got heated up when he asked them to have the same for dinner as well.

Enraged by this, the duo-Beeresh and Manjappa assaulted him. As an act of revenge, Rajanna murdered them with a pickaxe at night when they were asleep.
