Noida police held 4 in teenager murder case

With the arrest of the fourth and last suspect, an aspiring doctor, the Noida Police on Thursday claimed to have unravelled the mystery of murder of a trader's 14-yearold son, who had gone missing on May 1 and found dead four days later.

Three of the accused, Manoj Sharma, Himanshu Chaudhary, and Kunal Bhati, were arrested on Wednesday, while Himanshu's girlfriend Tanvi, an MBBS student, was held Thursday, the police said.

Greater Noida resident Krishna Kumar Sharma's son Kunal Sharma had gone missing from outside their restaurant on May 1 from Beta 2 Police Station area.

The murder drew flak for the police, with the family and relatives of the dead boy questioning law and order, alleging laxity in probe.

BJP leaders Mahesh Sharma and Dhirendra Singh met with the family. Singh, the Jewar MLA, even wrote to the UP government, demanding high level probe into the case.

Additional Commissioner of Police (Headquarters) Babloo Kumar, flanked by DCP Greater Noida Saad Miya Khan, on Thursday told reporters that all four suspects in the case have been arrested.

It was a loan that the boy's father Krishna Kumar Sharma had given to Manoj and Himanshu that formed the kernel of the antagonism.
