Two days after the body of an MBA student was found in a car near Sultanpur metro station; the south district police have arrested two persons including a friend of the deceased in connection with the murder. The body of Daksh (20), a resident of South East Delhi's Sarita Vihar area was found on the rear seat of a Maruti Alto car on Thursday evening.

Satish, alias Sunny (23), was arrested by the police late on Thursday night. Following his arrest his accomplice identified as Virendra alias Veera (27) was arrested on Friday morning. Police said personal enmity was the motive behind the murder. Mukesh had recently developed relations with Satish's girlfriend. Satish was upset over this and wanted to take revenge from Mukesh.

Meanwhile family members of the deceased said that he was an innocent child and never interfered in any such activity. The body was handed over to the family members for the final rites on Thursday."Anyone in the colony can vouch for him and the kind of conduct my son had. My child was hard-working," said Shankar Singh, father of the deceased.
