Alappuzha (Kerala) April 17: The last key accused in the murder of a former radio jockey was arrested here on Tuesday, police said.
Appunny was part of a four-member gang who killed Rajesh on March 27 at his studio near Thiruvananthapuram.
Last week, the police arrested gang leader Alibhai, a resident of Alappuzha district, upon his arrival from Qatar at the Trivandrum International Airport.
A few days after the murder, Alibhai had flown to Qatar, where he works in a gymnasium.
The police suspect that the gym's owner was the actual mastermind, as Rajesh who was also in in Qatar, had an affair with his former wife.
The police was now trying to repatriate the owner of the gym, but the Qatari authorities have imposed a travel ban on him.

Pakistan reports two more polio cases; Total tally now 52
ISLAMABAD: At least two more cases of poliovirus were reported in Pakistan, taking the number of infections to 52 so far this year, a report said on Friday.
“The Regional Reference Laboratory for Polio Eradication at the National Institute of Health has confirmed the detection of two more wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) cases in Pakistan," an official statement said.
The fresh infections — a boy and a girl — were reported from the Dera Ismail Khan district of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province.
“Genetic sequencing of the samples collected from the children is underway," the statement read. Dera Ismail Khan, one of the seven polio-endemic districts of southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, has reported five polio cases so far this year.
Of the 52 cases in the country this year, 24 are from Balochistan, 13 from Sindh, 13 from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and one each from Punjab and Islamabad.
There is no cure for polio. Only multiple doses of the oral polio vaccine and completion of the routine vaccination schedule for all children under the age of five can keep them protected.
