Police sources said that the accused persons left home at 7 p.m. on December 31 and were roaming on the streets till 2 a.m., and hence it is necessary to confront them with the people they met on that fateful night, including in Murthal.
The police said that CCTV footages from Murthal are yet to be scanned, adding that Ashutosh and Ankush Khanna, two other accused in the case, are still on the run.
Meanwhile, the police on Thursday added Section 201 (destruction of evidence) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) to the FIR registered in the case.
The police said that the accused tried to destroy evidence, hence Section 201 has been added to the FIR.
