While Deorukhakar was the main accused, the police had then arrested two more people in connection with the murder. A year after being arrested, Deorukhakar managed to get bail, however, he never visited the court again. The police launched a manhunt to nab Deorukhakar but all efforts were in vain. Finally, the cops manage to trace him after they followed his mother.
An officer said that a trial against the accused will begin soon. It is very unlikely that Deorukhakar would be released since there was a non-bailable warrant issued against him.
