By Our Staff Reporter

HYDERABAD, FEB. 15. Two persons -- Mujaid (19) and Nazer (28) -- were arrested on Tuesday by the Chilakalaguda police in connection with the gruesome killing of a welder, Syed Shakeel, at Padmaraonagar on Monday.

Five others who were allegedly involved in the killing and another main conspirator were still at large, the North Zone DCP, Kumar Vishwajeet, told a press conference here. Old rivalry was said to be the motive behind the killing of Shakeel, who was an accused in the murder of Khaja, also a welder by profession.

Khaja's elder brother, Mohd. Ghouse, his brother-in-law, Mohd. Pasha, and nephews -- Mujaid and Matin - allegedly vowed to avenge his killing. They sought the assistance of four others -- Muzaffar, Nazer, Mahboob and Asif. On Monday, they attacked Shakeel and later set him ablaze. Hunt is on for the remaining accused.
