New Delhi: A 20-year-old undergraduate was arrested for allegedly committing a murder to fund his education, police said on Friday.
Mohammad Asif, a resident of Uttar Pradesh's Meerut and pursuing graduation in science in Delhi, was arrested on September 6 from Anand Vihar bus terminal for the murder of an insurance agent.
"Asif was residing in Abul Fazal Enclave with one of his friends, Fasad, who was also a resident of Uttar Pradesh and pursuing computer science in Delhi," a police official said.
About two months back, Fasad told Asif that he had a dispute with Mohammad Shabbir, an insurance agent from Bijnor town in Uttar Pradesh, and that he wanted him dead.
"Asif agreed to kill Shabir in return of Rs.50,000 so that he could finance his academic career," the official added.
Asif also roped in his relative Mushahid and asked Shabir to meet them near Masuri canal in Ghaziabad district of Uttar Pradesh on the pretext of buying an insurance policy. When Shabir arrived, he was shot dead and his body disposed of in the canal.
Fasad and Mushahid have already been arrested by Uttar Pradesh Police, the official said.
