Murder accused wrestler nabbed after one year

A 28-year-old murder accused who was absconding for more than a year has been arrested by the Delhi Police's Crime Branch from Barabanki district in Uttar Pradesh.

The accused, identified as Dushyant Kake, who is a trained wrestler, was allegedly involved in the murder of a man from a rival gang at northwest Delhi's Pitampura area in July last year.

While two of his associates - identified as Badal and Deepak - were arrested, Dushyant was still at large, said Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Ravindra Yadav today.

The police received a tip-off about Dushyant's present hideout and rushed a team to Barabanki from where he was arrested, he said.
 

The police had declared a reward of Rs 50,000 on his arrest, Yadav added.
