After the killing of Vicky on April 30, his wife claimed that her husband had revealed to her that the gang led by Raju Barman had been trying to harm him. It was on the day of the murder that responding to a call from his wife, Vicky had told her that he was going to the house of Biman Das, a close accomplice of Raju Barman, in Bamutia but on the way Vicky had been shot dead near the Shalbagan BSF headquarter.
