Later on, the team went to speak with Luka again after the player recovered an offensive picture made by the victim. He said that the victim was his best friend and that they always share secrets. He continued and said that one day he confessed to him that he is gay, the victim after that start to mock and make fun of him and his choices that one day he almost led him to the edge of suicide.

When everything is finished and last evidence found the player and Priya arrested Rafael Iskra, and office clerk. After his tries to deny he confessed that he murdered him.
