Jamshedpur: Seraikela-Kharsawan police on Saturday arrested four persons in connection with Sujoy Nandi murder case and sent them to judicial custody on Saturday.
The police were facing a lot of criticism for not doing enough to arrest the persons responsible for the murder of BJP leader and businessperson Sujoy Nandi. Sujoy Nandi was killed in broad daylight near his house at S Type Chowk under the jurisdiction of Adityapur police station.
The locals had later blocked the Tata-Kandra Road demanding immediate arrest of the people responsible for the murder.
