SHILLONG: Three more suspects arrested in Madhya Pradesh in connection with the murder of Raja Raghuvanshi are expected to be brought to Shillong for further investigation by Wednesday, police said on Monday.

Following a request from Meghalaya SIT, Gwalior police arrested Lokendra Singh Tomar, of Gwalior. East Khasi Hills SP Vivek Syiem said the arrest was made Monday afternoon, reports Manosh Das.

“He is landlord of the flat at Dewas Naka, where Sonam had taken shelter after fleeing Shillong. The accused had left MPfor Uttarakhand on June 16 and travelled to Gwalior on June 22. An SIT splinter team is currently en route from Indore to Gwalior to formally arrest him.

He will then be produced before a Gwalior court for transit remand. He is wanted in connection with destruction and concealment of key evidence in the case,” the SP said in a statement.

Tomar and two others, property dealer Silome James and security guard Balla Ahirwar, who were arrested Saturday, will also be brought to Shillong by Wednesday, the SP added.
