Two Arrested in Jamshedpur Murder Linked to Revenge Over Cousin's KillingPreviousNext

Two men, Raju Kumbhkar and Suraj Kuntia, were arrested for the murder of 24-year-old Vikash Singh in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand. Police stated the killing was allegedly in revenge for the death of Sourabh Sharma, a cousin of Kumbhkar, who was reportedly killed by Vikash's younger brother, Vicky Singh. Unable to find Vicky, recently released from jail, the accused targeted Vikash, attacking him with a knife and iron rod on May 30 and disposing of his body in a bush near Olidih.
