Pune police have arrested Ritesh Hange, a friend and classmate of prime accused Chetan Chaudhary, as the third accused in the murder of realtor Ketan Agarwal at Lohagad Fort on June 18. Police allege Hange had prior knowledge of the conspiracy planned by Agarwal's fiancee, Siya Goyal, and Chaudhary, who allegedly pushed Agarwal off a cliff.
