Haryana Police said on October 3 that its Special Task Force had apprehended a suspect wanted in the killing of a showroom owner in Abohar, Punjab. The police statement said Punjab Police had offered a ₹5-lakh reward for information leading to the suspect’s arrest. A Hisar team detained him near a bypass on Rajgarh Road.
Police reported recovering a .32-bore pistol and three cartridges. Akashvani’s October 3 report carried the official announcement, while The Times of India identified the underlying case as the July 7, 2025 killing of businessman Sanjay Verma. Its report dates the apprehension to October 1 and a separate Arms Act case in Hisar to October 2. The current development is the October 3 public disclosure, rather than a claim that the murder or arrest happened today.
Authorities said questioning would examine the suspect’s alleged role and associates. The published police announcement did not name him. A wanted notice, reward and arrest are investigative steps, not findings of guilt.
