New Delhi: Police caught an accused in a 24-year-old murder case from Bihar's Nalanda. The accused allegedly killed a factory worker in Dwaraka's Uttam Nagar, PTI reported, citing the police's account on Saturday.

There were four accused, identified as Sakender Kumar, Pappu Yadav, Montu Yadav, and Vijay, and it is alleged that they together strangled their co-worker Ram Swaroop to death in 2000.

"Ram Swaroop's decomposed body was recovered from under plastic bags at the factory. During the investigation, Mantu Yadav was arrested, but the others remained on the run and were declared proclaimed offenders by a court," the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Satish Kumar said

Recently, the Delhi Police received information about the whereabouts of Sakender Kumar, after which they raided the village in Bihar's Nalanda and arrested him, the senior police official said.

"Delhi Police has arrested a proclaimed offender identified as Sakender Kumar alias Sakki, who was on the run for almost 24 years in a murder case," he said.

Kumar said that during interrogation, Sakender accepted his involvement in the murder along with the other three accused. He disclosed the murder was a fallout of an altercation between Pappu Yadav and the victim, the officer said.

Sakender disclosed that they strangled Ram Swaroop and concealed his body under layers of raw plastics in a room within the factory and locked the room, he added.

According to the police, Sakender fled Delhi and lived in various cities to avoid arrest. Years later, he took up a job at a grocery home delivery company in Patna and settled there with his family, police said.

Further investigation into the matter is underway, they added.
