The motive behind the heinous act appears to be linked to a business rivalry. Shabarish and Santhosh were previously employed at G-Net, another broadband company where Phanindra and Vinu Kumar had worked before. However, due to reported differences with Arun Kumar, the owner of G-Net, the duo decided to establish their own venture, Aeronics Media, in November 2022.
