Police said the accused, 27-year-old Rajesh Kumar, is a dreaded interstate gangster.
He, along with gang members Sanjiv, Dalip and another, had on August 22 killed businessman Sanjeev Gajwani when he resisted their attempt to snatch his bag outside his residence in the Ashok Vihar area. After murdering him, they took away over Rs 4 lakh from him.
The entire crime was noticed by Gajwani's elder brother Ashok Gajwani who was standing on the balcony of the house.
The three gang members were arrested in September by a crime branch team but Kumar was on the run.
"Kumar was finally arrested in Rohini on Tuesday following a tip-off. A country-made pistol was also recovered from his possession," Deputy Commissioner of Police Joy Tirkey said.
"During interrogation, Kumar told police that he had escaped from police custody twice -- of Punjab Police in 2014 and Haryana Police in 2016.
"He said that he is involved in 10 criminal cases, which include attempt to murder, one assault in Panchkula, two under Arms Act in Haryana and others in Kaithal and Patiala," the officer added.
"Kumar is a resident of Kaithal district in Haryana. He is married but separated from his wife. He has a number of tattoos on his chest."
The victim had a hosiery factory in the Shastri Nagar area.
