Over a month after the brutal murder of a young woman and attack on her mother here, the police today arrested L Ramana (26) for the crime.

Police also recovered two knives used in the crime.

ACP (East) A Narasimha Murthy said the woman, D Rupa, and her mother Bhogamma hail from Ponduru area in Srikakulam district. Rupa had separated from her husband.

Ramana, who worked as an electrician, befriended Rupa and proposed to marry her, but her mother rejected his proposal, the ACP said.

Ramana and Rupa eloped to Vijayawada in May this year, but she left him as he allegedly ill-treated her.
 

On August 13, Ramana went to Rupa's house and attacked her and her mother. While Rupa died, her mother was still undergoing treatment.
