Almost after a week's investigation into the murder of a 70-year-old man, who used to run a snacks stall in Borivli, the local police managed to arrest three accused on Thursday. Of the three, one was an ex-employee of the deceased. They were traced to an area close to the border of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu and brought back to Mumbai the same day. Police sources said that though the intention behind the murder was robbery, the trio could not lay their hands on a lot of cash, as the victim had been depositing most of his earnings in his bank account since demonetisation.
