Bengaluru: Three more people have been arrested on Saturday in connection with the murder of ex-BJP corporator Rekha Kadiresh. Searches are being conducted at three locations.

Earlier, police had opened fire to arrest two people in connection with the case. The accused have been identified as Peter and Surya, relatives of Rekha’s husband Kadhiresh.

It is said that the officials were forced to shoot as Peter and Surya attacked a sub inspector and a police constable at the time of their arrest.

Rekha was stabbed at least 17 times while she was returning to her office after distributing food to the needy at around 10.30 am on Thursday.

She was a two-time BJP corporator and resident of the Chalavadipalya ward in the city and also was the second wife of rowdy-sheeter Kadiresh, who was killed in February 2018.
