The whole scenario turned violent when the man attached the tea vendor named Sukhen Das with a piece of brick.

Das suffered multiple injuries on his head after the accused, Dipankar Sarkar, hit him repeatedly with the brick.

Das had warned Sarkar a couple of days before to clear the previous due if he wanted to buy more from the tea shop.
