PATNA: Gorkha battalion constable Arjun Dayal alias Arjun Thapa (38) was brutally murdered following an altercation in a birthday party at Thawe in Gopalganj on August 10, said Gopalganj SP Anand Kumar on Tuesday.
All the three accused—Amit Kumar (20) of Videshi Tola in Thave, Mohammad Kahim (36) of West Bengal and Vikash Upadhayay (26)— of Madhopur under Rasulpur police station area in Saran, who were allegedly involved in the killing, have been sent to jail on Monday.
“Police will move the court within a week to seek the trio’s remand for detailed interrogation. Thereafter we will file a chargesheet and will to put up the case for speedy trial,” the SP added.
Arjun’s body was found with his throat slit open buried near a village road at Chetitola under the Thawe police station area in the district on August 11. He was a native of Chitwan in Nepal and was a part of Bihar Special Armed Police (BSAP) company erstwhile known as Bihar Military Police (BMP), deployed for guarding the famous Thawe temple in Gopalganj.
The company was scheduled to move to Bagaha on August 11 before which he was stabbed to death.
Dayal had gone to attend a birthday party with the trio organised in a guest house near the temple. “An altercation broke out after some comments from the constable. Probably all were in a drunken state. While Vikas first stabbed the constable, Kahim and Amit strangulated Dayal to death. They also slit his throat and stabbed him a few more times. They then carried the body on a bike and fled towards the town after dumping it,” the SP said.
“Police have recovered the knife and bike used in the killing and a missing shoe of Dayal on trio’s confession. The postmortem report is awaited,” he added.
