Kathmandu. Police have arrested Ganesh Mahato, a resident of Ramgopalpur municipality in Mahottari district, on suspicion of his involvement in the murder of Pramod Kumar Yadav, a sub-engineer at the Infrastructure Development Office in Sarlahi district. According to sources, a team from Sarlahi District Police Office arrested him from India and brought him to Nepal.
According to highly-placed sources, Mahato is suspected to have been murdered using an Indian shooter. Sub-engineer Yadav was shot dead at a rented room in Malangawa Municipality-10 of Sarlahi on February 17.
According to sources, Mahato Yadav was also an alternative candidate for the civil service. He is also working in a contract service at a local level in Sarlahi. According to sources, Yadav was murdered in the greed of making his name known and becoming a contender for a government job.
