The accused duo, who fled from the spot after <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-crime-news/article/mumbai-crime-police-constable-held-for-supplying-drugs-to-arthur-road-jail-inmates-23313359" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">fatally attacking</a> the victim on Sunday, has been arrested. Police said an argument broke out between the victim, Anil Randive, and two men at the bar on who among them would take the food parcel first, reported PTI.
The duo started thrashing Randive and one of them hit the victim's head with a kada or metal wristlet, an official told PTI.
A case has been registered against the duo under various sections of the Indian Penal Code including 302 (Punishment for murder), the official told PTI, adding that further investigation is underway.
Meanwhile, two brothers who had been on the run for 29 years after killing a woman and her four children in Maharashtra's Thane district were arrested by the police in Uttar Pradesh, an official told PTI on Monday.
A team of the MBVV police arrested Anil alias Vijay Ramavadh Saroj (48) and his brother Sunil alias Sanjay (47) from the Kirakat area in Jaunpur district of Uttar Pradesh on Saturday, deputy commissioner of police (Crime) Avinash Ambure told PTI.
The duo had been on the run after brutally murdering Jagranidevi (27) and her four children, the youngest who was three months old, at Kashimira in Thane district in 1994, the official told PTI.
The police had nabbed one of the accused in the case in December 2022, while the brothers remained absconding, the official told PTI.
The police had received information that the Saroj brothers were wandering in the villages of Uttar Pradesh by posing as faith healers, the official told PTI.
Based on a tip-off, crime branch officials set up a decoy and some police personnel pretended to be ailing and visited the duo who were camping at a temple in Kirakat and apprehended them on Saturday, the official told PTI.
During interrogation, the duo revealed that they had lived in Delhi, Haryana and Punjab after assuming different identities, and worked in factories, the official told PTI, adding that the duo also obtained Aadhaar and PAN cards under new names.
Earlier in December 2022, the police had nabbed Rajkumar Amarnath Chauhan (41), who had fled to Qatar after committing the crime, the official told PTI.
