Bengaluru, Mar 12 (UNI) The CCB Police have nabbed seven people, including woman, in connection with daring day light brutal murder of rowdy sheeter Lakshman in the City recently.

Police said on Tuesday that the arrested were identified as rowdy sheeter Hemanth Kumar, Alok, Devraj, Varun Kumar, Madhukumar, Rupesh and Varshini. Efforts are on to nab another five members of the gang behind the murder.

Preliminary investigation has revealed that Varshini, who was friendly with Lakshman, was suspected in behind the murder. Varshini, who returned to India after studying Post Graduate in Psychology at London, had developed friendship with Lakshman and over some finance matter she wanted to take revenge and hatched a plan to murder him with the help of his (Lakshaman) opponents.

Police said that rowdy sheeter Hemant Kumar received bullet on his right leg and fell down when CCB team led by Inspector Harish fired at him in self defence after firing in the air as warning went in vain.

The police team after learning about his hideout went to arrest him when Hemant Kumar started attacking them with lethal weapons in an attempt to escape. However, he was taken into custody after he fell down and admitted to Victoria hospital where his condition is stated to be out of danger.
