It was when he was stabbed multiple times on his back and in other parts of his body. He was also hit by an iron rod. As a result of excessive bleeding and injuries, he died immediately.
Inspector Kadam said that the motive behind this is said to be business rivalry and they wanted to settle the score with the builder.
