He led the police team towards the man. The man who sold the cell phone to her, along with his accomplice, killed the girl. The two have been arrested. ”

The accused have been identified as 22-year-old Dinesh Mardi and 20-year-old Arun Kisku, both from Assam and used to work in a tea factory in Kharsang.

Gambo said the role of both the accused in the murder has been confirmed and the victim’s mobile phone has also been recovered from their possession.
