The Borivali Government Railway Police recovered the knife allegedly used by Roshan Suvarna to fatally stab 22-year-old Mayank Lohar on a Mumbai local train on June 23. The weapon was found near platforms 2 and 3 at Borivali station after restaurant staff recognized it from viral videos and informed police.
