Bangalore: With the arrest of five painters, the Central Crime Branch (CCB) police said it has cracked the sensational murders of two students who were kidnapped from Mysore and stabbed to death in Chickballapur. Highly placed sources in the State Police Department confirmed the arrests to The Hindu. The police top brass will announce the breakthrough formally on Wednesday. M. Sudheendra (19) and H.S. Vignesh (20), BBM students of Mahajana's College in Mysore, went missing on June 8. Their bodies were found near Agalagurki on the Chickballapur bypass on June 11. The CCB police, under the guidance of Additional Director-General of Police (Law and Order) Rupak Kumar Dutta, cracked the case on Tuesday. The arrested men are Ameen, Attu, Adil, Safeer and Rehman, all aged about 25. However, three of their alleged accomplices are at large. All the eight — four from Hunsur and the rest from Mysore — are painters. The suspects had planned to extract several crores of rupees from the victims' fathers who are wealthy businessmen in Hunsur. However, when their plans went awry, they killed the boys and went underground, a top police officer told The Hindu. Sudheendra was the son of Mohan Kumar, a hardware merchant in Hunsur, while Vignesh's father, Srinath, runs a provision store. “We had interrogated at least 200 persons, including friends and family members of the students. The accused had been hired to paint one of their homes. Since then they were monitoring the boys' movements. They executed their kidnap plan on June 8,” the officer said. According to the preliminary investigation, the suspects allegedly killed the boys in the moving vehicle and dumped the bodies by the wayside. They did not have money to even provide food to their victims.
