Mangaluru: City police arrested six persons in connection with a recent murder case.
Melrick D’Souza (21) was brutally murdered at his doorsteps on Christmas day.
The accused have been identified as Nishank Poojary (28), Vinesh Kumar (30), Sachin Shetty (22), Ganesh Kulal (34), Praveen Poojary (42) and Sandeep Shetty (33).
