According to the police, Shankarlal had been living individually from his family for three years, and he had converted a separate house in the neighborhood into a tiny ashram. The house had pictures of deities and saints from several religions. Shankarlal had placed pictures of all religions, believing that he belonged to people of all faiths. However, the police revealed that when they conducted an investigation inside the ashram and learned about his activities, it became clear that Shankarlal was involved in immoral activities and was leading a debauched lifestyle away from his family.
