Later, Ratan tried to contact Mamun to give him the money but was unable to do so. Through family members, a general diary (GD) was filed at Rajarhat Police Station.

Later, on the basis of GD, the police arrested three people on Sunday night, and a case was registered. Police and family members came to know that Mamun and some others were involved in a scuffle in front of the district primary education office in front of the RDRS office on October 9 evening.

Based on this, police found Mamun's torn black t-shirt near the district primary education office. So the police went to the pond behind RDRS to look for Mamun and found his body floating.
