Karthikeyan/accused was not interested in listening to Kanan's (deceased) problems and therefore, he was continuing to watch television. This infuriated the deceased Kannan, who put off the television. Angry with what Kannan did, Karthikeyan (accused) called him by his caste name and hit him. Since Kannan (deceased) was drunk, he fell down and he was carried to the local hospital for treatment. After treatment was given to Kannan, he was brought to the room and he was sleeping, but, unfortunately, he died in sleep.
