The incident was the fallout of an argument between the victim and his colleagues, who were contractors working at the mall, and an associate of the accused who operates a paan shop near the mall entrance, police said.

Khan was also a contractor working with Niranjan. He was killed by Kumar, an associate of Manoj Kumar, the paan shop owner," said inspector Sunil Kumar, station house officer of Gurugram Sadar police station.
