Police sources said that the victim used to clean a temple located in Kandivali area to earn money as his family was very poor.

On the day of the incident, the boy was returning home around 10 pm after finishing work at the temple. Finding him alone, four youths suddenly stopped him and started abusing him physically. When the boy started crying, they threatened to kill him. Later, he was allowed to go. On reaching home, when his mother asked him what the matter was, he narrated the entire incident to her. She immediately took him to the police station and registered a complaint.
