Cyberabad police arrested Anil Kumar Sah and a contract killer from Bihar in connection with the murder of 36-year-old Mina Devi near Gandigudem village on May 30. Initially, Anil claimed unknown assailants attacked them, but investigations revealed he hired contract killers for ₹2 lakh due to domestic disputes.
