According to police officials, the two arrested have been identified as Satyanarayan Yadav (28) and Manoj Yadav (23), who shared a house with the deceased.
On July 4, the two served Jayswal some alcohol, and after he was inebriated, they choked him to death with a scarf. &ldquo;The duo then locked the body inside a toilet at Belapur station, and in order to mask the stench they poured phenyl on it. Later, on July 6, they bought a sickle and cut it up into 12 parts, placed it in a plastic bag and dumped into a nearby dustbin,&rdquo; added Shinde.
With no clues and an unidentified body, the cops started investigating the case and checked CCTV footage of the previous week.
&ldquo;After checking CCTV cameras at Belapur station, we zeroed in on the two, since they looked suspicious. We picked up Satyanarayan. After he confessed to the crime, we arrested him and nabbed Manoj on Saturday,&rdquo; said Shinde.
