The motorcycle belonged to Manohar, a resident of Padibagilu in Kepu village.
On the night of November 10, after finishing his work, Manohar parked his motorcycle behind the firecracker shop before heading home. At around 11 pm, after closing the shop, he took the remaining firecrackers with him and left for home.
