Delhi Police has arrested a 24-year-old man, who had been absconding for more than a year after being accused in a murder case here, an official said on Tuesday.
The accused, Tanveer, a resident of Moti Nagar, was named in an FIR registered at Anand Parbat police station. The case pertained to a murder reported on April 20, 2025, he said.
According to the official, four people were accused in the 2025 case, wherein they forcibly took the victim to a secluded location and subjected him to severe physical assault. The victim sustained grievous injuries from the assault, leading to his death during treatment at a hospital.
