They have been identified as Deepak Khanna, Amit Khanna, Krishna, Mithu and Manoj Mittal. The accused will be produced in the court tomorrow.

Along with this, the postmortem of the deceased will also be carried out by a board of doctors. DCP Harendra Kumar Singh says that section 304 of IPC has also been added in the FIR so that the accused do not get bail easily.
