The Haryana Police on Monday said they have arrested one person in connection with the murder of Congress worker Himani Narwal.
“We have arrested one accused and further investigations are on,” a Haryana police official told PTI.
Narwal’s body was found inside a suitcase near Sampla bus stand on Rohtak-Delhi highway on March 1.
On Sunday, the Haryana Police had set up a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the murder of the 23-year-old Congress worker. Four teams of the Rohtak Police were looking for the culprits, PTI quoted a police official.
Narwal lived at Vijay Nagar in Rohtak. Her body, which was found in a suitcase in Rohtak district on Saturday, bore some injury marks, police said.
Narwal’s family said they will not cremate her till killers are arrested.
Her mother Savita alleged that some leaders in her party envied her political rise in a short span.
