According to the chain of events detailed by the Delhi Police, Kunal, who had recently been released from jail on bail, was introduced to Anil Pandit through a friend from Harsana village. The two allegedly communicated through an encrypted messaging application.

The police further stated that Kunal met Radha around two months ago, informed her about his activities and persuaded her to travel to Mumbai with a weapon.
