Ghaziabad police are searching for the body of a young boy, who was allegedly kidnapped and killed by his uncle over a property dispute, officials said.
On August 15, Brijesh Tyagi had filed a complaint that his son Reshu could not be traced for a week. A week later on August 22, a case was filed by him that his son was kidnapped 14 days ago by some close relatives due to an old property dispute.
Relying on circumstantial evidence and electronic surveillance, police teams arrested Leelu (Tyagi's younger brother) in Muradnagar, Rahul of Sambhal district and Surendra of Hapur district on Thursday from Muradnagar, police official Iraj Raja said.
During interrogation, the prime accused confessed to kidnapping and killing Reshu and thereafter throwing his body in a canal near Bulandshahar with the help of his accomplices Surendra, Vikrant, Mukesh and Rahul.
