Five arrested in connection with the murder of UP youth

MUMBAI: Five persons were today arrested in connection with the murder of an Uttar Pradesh migrant in a suburban local train here, a senior officer of the Government Railway Police (GRP) said.

"We questioned many people yesterday and based on information and eye witness accounts, five persons have been arrested today," GRP Commissioner A K Sharma told PTI.

Sharma, however, refused to comment on whether the five arrested persons were affiliated to the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) led by Raj Thackeray.

They are likely to be produced in a court later today.
