3 arrested for trader's killing

Three persons were arrested in connection with kidnapping and murder of a trader K P Chacko, the police said today.

"Three people have already been arrested and eight others have been identified behind the crime," Capital SP Seju P Kuruvilla said.

Chacko was kidnapped by armed miscreants from his rented house at Naharlagun on August 28 and his decomposed body was recovered from a jungle near Doimukh on September 6.

DGP S Nithianandam while addressing a press conference here yesterday informed that the government had sanctioned for establishment of five check gates at strategic locations such as Yupia-Hoj-Sagalee tri-junction, Dikrong bridge, Julli, Chimpu-Poma and Chimpu-Holongi roads and very soon the check posts will be established.
 

To contain crimes in the state capital, the DGP said that CCTV cameras will be set up at every strategic location to easily detect movement of criminals.
