Five of the eight inmates of a drug deaddiction camp, who had been on the run after allegedly killing the centre's caretaker on Diwali night, have been arrested, said police on Wednesday.
The three others, who are still eluding police after killing the caretaker of the 'Aabhar' deaddiction centre in Lajpat Nagar area in the city, too would be apprehended soon, said Superintendent of Police (City) Manish Mishra.
Mishra said police identified the killers after scanning the video footage of the CCTV camera installed in caretaker Sabir Khan's room and sent teams to their respective residences after getting their addresses from the deaddiction camp's records.
Five of them were later nabbed from a place near the Ghaziabad railway station where they were waiting to take a train to get out of the city to escape police, he said.,
