Sujit Kumar, alias Babbu, was arrested from his in-laws’ house in Ludhiana, Punjab. Kumar is the 15 accused arrested in the case. According to the police, Kumar was allegedly involved in the conspiracy in the Baba Siddique murder case and was the first to identify Nitin Sapre and Ram Fulchand Kanoujia, who have already been arrested.
Kumar used to live in Chheda Nagar, Ghatkopar, previously.
According to the police, Sapre and Kanoujia were initially hired by another accused, Shubham Lonkar, for committing the murder but they backed out as Lonkar did not pay them the Rs 1 crore they demanded.
