Vijayapura, July 05: The CID sleuths arrested prime accused in Gangadhar Chadchana murder, Mahadev Sahukar Bhyragonda on Thursday.

CID sources said that Mahadev was arrested from his home at Kerur village in Indi taluk. After the murder of Chadchan came to light, Mahadev was absconding. But the efforts of the police in searching the accused went in vain. As he did not come to his home for the last many days, the CID officials expected that he would come to his home. So, the officials waited for him and trapped him.

On a tip-off that he has reached his home on Wednesday night, the police reached his home and arrested him. Later, he was taken to Chadchana police station. Vijayapura additional district special court rejected the anticipatory bail plea of Mahadev on July 2. Total nine persons were arrested in the Gangadhar Chadchana murder case and all of them were in judicial custody.
