They said that Mandrani was a brave journalist who not only worked for the downtrodden people of his area but also exposed injustices being committed by the influential people with the poor masses. They said he also reported against drug dens which were operated by the drug dealers right under the nose of police and such news clippings were also uploaded by him on his social media account for which he was targeted by the drug operators and police. They said he was dragged out of his car by people of Dayo community and made captive at a house where he was brutally tortured and then he was shot in the head due to which he died. They forcefully condemned brutal killing of an innocent working journalist.

They further added that the relatives of journalists are alleging that arrested two accused are also not involved in the murder and police is trying to save the real culprits.
