Suspicious movements of the two accused were also recorded in a CCTV camera. They were later identified and apprehended on Saturday from Railway Lines, Zakhira, Deputy Commissioner of Police (north) Sagar Singh Kalsi said.

The accused disclosed that Rajkumar was having an illicit relationship with one of the close relatives of Asfak. On the intervening night of July 2 and 3, they took him into the bushes at Kachara Park, Shahzada Bagh and killed him with knives, the DCP said.

The accused were under impression that the body would remain unidentified as they knew that Rajkumar rarely visited his native place and there would be no one to report his missing or abduction, police added.
