Two youths were arrested for allegedly killing their 56-year-old mother here with the help of hired killers, police said today.

Based on their confession, the two hired killers Krishna De and Ranabir Lodh were also arrested last night, the police said.
Santa Saha, whose husband is an employee of the engineering cell of Tripura police, was killed at their government quarters at Shyamali Bazar, a high security area of the capital town, on August 17.
She was known to have often objected and tried to stop her sons from being involved in criminal activities.
