Three youths have been arrested here in connection with the alleged abduction and murder of a 25-year-old man, police said today.
Ram Autar, Sonu Yadav and Vikas were arrested on charges of abduction and murder of Harish Kumar from nearby Shahbazpur Khalsa village, the police said.
According to police, Harish, who was allegedly kidnapped from the village on the night of October 13, was found lying in a state of coma on the rail track near Ajarka station of Alwar district in Rajasthan on October 16.
He was then admitted to Sawai Man Singh hospital in Jaipur, where he succumbed to his injuries yesterday.
Consequently, Section 302 (murder) of the IPC was added to the FIR that was earlier registered for abduction against the accused on a complaint filed by Pinki Devi, wife of the deceased.
Police sources said that an altercation had ensued between Harish and the three accused over some issue under the influence of alcohol.
The accused seriously injured Harish in the heated argument that followed, they added.
The trio then dumped him on the rail track from where he was found in a state of coma.
