Get ID of the Control which fires ItemCommand in RadGrid

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RGStyleGuideRestrictions" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
                OnItemCommand="RGStyleGuideRestrictions_ItemCommand"

    <MasterTableView DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataKeyNames="TerritoryReportGroup">

      <Columns>
        <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateColumn">
            <ItemTemplate>                
                <asp:ImageButton ID="imgBtn1" runat = "server"/> 
                <asp:ImageButton ID="imgBtn2" runat = "server"/>                     
            </ItemTemplate>
        </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
      </Columns>
    </MasterTableView>
</telerik:RadGrid>

In CODE-BEHIND:-

protected void RGStyleGuideRestrictions_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
   ImageButton imgBtn1 = e.item.FindControl("imgBtn1") as ImageButton;
   ImageButton imgBtn2 = e.item.FindControl("imgBtn2") as ImageButton;
}

QUESTION:- Now, click of any of the ImageButton fires the ItemCommand event. I want to find out or fetch the ID of that ImageButton(1 or 2) in codebehind, which fired the ItemCommand.

Please suggest what to do for that. I am clue less.

The source object is the one that fired the command. Just cast the source to the image button and check whether is the button1 or button2.

protected void RGStyleGuideRestrictions_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
   ImageButton fired = source as ImageButton;
   if(fired!=null && fired.Id=="imgBtn1")
   {
      //imgBtn1 fired the command
   }
   else 
   {
     // and so on...
   }
   ImageButton imgBtn1 = e.item.FindControl("imgBtn1") as ImageButton;
   ImageButton imgBtn2 = e.item.FindControl("imgBtn2") as ImageButton;
}

UPDATE

Since code above didn't work, try this approach:

  <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateColumn">
        <ItemTemplate>                
            <asp:ImageButton CommandArgument="btn1" ID="imgBtn1" runat = "server"/> 
            <asp:ImageButton CommandArgument="btn2" ID="imgBtn2" runat = "server"/>                     
        </ItemTemplate>
    </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>


protected void RGStyleGuideRestrictions_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{

   if(e.CommandArgument=="btn1")
   {
      //imgBtn1 fired the command
   }
   else if(e.CommandArgument=="btn2")
   {
      //imgBtn2 fired the command  
   }
   ImageButton imgBtn1 = e.item.FindControl("imgBtn1") as ImageButton;
   ImageButton imgBtn2 = e.item.FindControl("imgBtn2") as ImageButton;
}

Have you tried applying CommandNames to your imagebuttons?

 <asp:ImageButton ID="imgBtn1" runat = "server" CommandName="imgAction1"/> 
 <asp:ImageButton ID="imgBtn2" runat = "server" CommandName="imgAction2"/> 

 protected void RGStyleGuideRestrictions_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
 {
      switch(e.CommandName)
      {
         case "imgAction1": // do stuff here
             break;
         case "imgAction2": // do some other stuff here
             break;
      }
 }
