Following the incident, Gajendra Singh Tomar's family left the village and the two parties settled out of court.
However, Gajendra Singh Tomar and his family had recently returned to the village. It is alleged that in a planned attack, Dhir Singh Tomar and his associates attacked the family of Gajendra Singh Tomar, resulting in the death of two sons and three women.
