In a significant development, Jharkhand Police have arrested two more individuals in connection with the murder of Sumit Singh Yadav, a recovery agent, raising the total number of apprehensions to four.

Authorities identified and apprehended Ravi Toppo and Vijay Das, who were allegedly involved in the fatal shooting that occurred on July 13 in Chaibasa's New Colony Nimdih area. Law enforcement seized two motorcycles believed to be used in the crime.

The Special Investigation Team (SIT), led by Sub-Divisional Police Officer Bahman Tuti, continues to pursue the remaining suspects, with the involvement of five assailants confirmed through CCTV footage.
