The accused revealed that they killed him on the direction of one Abu Usman, who was friends with the woman Haq had an affair with. Three others were also involved with them. They all, including the deceased, were from the same locality in Bihar and were inter-related through distant relations, police said. They disclosed that Haq was in relation with a woman which he wanted to continue even after getting married to someone else in his village, police said, adding that Usman used to call Haq to warn him not to bother the woman, but he did not listen.
