Subsequent investigations by the police revealed that the attacker had demanded free eggs from Shahbaz Pathan while seemingly under the influence of alcohol.

Dinesh Tayde, the Police Inspector of Baramati City Police Station, has made an appeal to the public to inform cops about individuals involved in unwarranted harassment of business owners and others in the community or contact the emergency number 112.
