While West Bengal Police earlier arrested Mita's husband Rana Mondal and father-in-law Dijendra Mondal in connection with her death, her absconding brother-in-law Rahul Mondal was picked up by the CID sleuths later this evening, a senior police officer said.
The Chief Minister announced CID probe at state secretariat Nabanna earlier in the day after meeting Mita's father Sahadeb Das and family members and promised job for one member of the family and taking care of all the debts the family took to get Mita married.
Mita, a first-class in MA in Bengali from the Jadavpur University in 2015, allegedly committed suicide on October 11 at her in-law's residence at Kushberia in Uluberia after a spat with her husband Rana Mondal.
After Mita's family alleged that she was tortured and murdered, the police arrested Rana and father-in-law Bijendra, while the mother-in-law and brother-in-law were absconding at that time.
