In a shocking turn of events in Jharkhand's East Singhbhum district, police have arrested three individuals involved in the murder of a 31-year-old man, believed to be motivated by a family dispute.

One of the men arrested is the victim's paternal uncle, who allegedly planned the murder after discovering that the victim had taken an inappropriate photo of his aunt and was using it for blackmail.

The victim went missing on August 12, prompting his family to file a police report. Upon discovering his motorcycle near his uncle's residence in Birsanagar, police expanded the investigation, eventually finding his body 30 km away in a river near Jadugora on August 15.
