A murder convict, Ganesh Rout (42) alias Nilei of Shankarpur area was found murdered near the bus terminus eight days ago with deep cut injuries in his body.
City DCP Sanjeev Arora today told reporters that the main accused Seshadev Behera and two of his associates - Rajesh Jena and Chandan Khuntia - were arrested and the weapons of assault - two daggers, were seized from them.
