According to the details, victim Rehan's father Sheik Gouse purchased two milk packets from the Heritage plant in the locality on Friday evening. One packet was stored in the fridge while the other was curdled for consumption. On Saturday morning, when Rehan's mother fed him with milk, the infant started vomiting followed by diarrhea. The parents rushed him to a nearby hospital.

Meanwhile, Gouse returned home to have lunch. When he opened to take the curdled milk stored in refrigerator, he noticed that the curd started sticking to spoon like an adhesive agent.
