"While two accused persons, Mohammed Kamal (36) and Kalim Khan alias China (32) have been arrested this morning from Jorashanko police station area, another man Tarak Kotal was arrested from the Esplanade bus terminus area late this evening in connection with the shooting on April 18 just after the polls," Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Pallab Kanti Ghosh told PTI.
