According to sources, Tiwari, who was there in the city for the past one year, did two jobs to meet his financial needs. During the day he worked as a salesman and at night as a security guard. Though his family lives in Uttar Pradesh, a couple of his relatives stay in Mumbai for work. The cops have not been able to find any evidence at the crime spot. They have only recovered Tiwari's cell phone and some cash.

A police officer said, "We got to know on Saturday night that Tiwari's body was spotted on Chapel Road, Bandra West. On reaching the spot, we rushed him to the nearest hospital, but he was declared dead on arrival. His relatives mentioned that he did not have any dispute with anybody, yet we are probing the case from all possible angles."
