Ranchi, June 18: One person has been detained by the Ranchi police in the Pandra double murder case.
Rohan Kumar, a resident of Bank Colony in Pandra, has been identified as the person who has been apprehended. It is claimed that Rohan, joined by two others, carried out the murder in the early hours of Saturday. Two people who accompanied Rohan are also being sought by the police.
Arrests were made based on Rohan’s mobile phone location. Chanda Singh (40), the mother of deceased Shweta (17) and Pravin Kumar Singh (14), alerted police about Rohan’s presence at the scene.
