The Belagavi police took six persons into custody in connection with a double murder in Sulebavi village.
Police Commissioner M.B. Boralingaiah told presspersons in Belagavi on Friday that the offence was committed following a fight between old acquaintances and relatives over a silly reason.
“The deceased and accused were related. They had some long standing personal rivalry between them. They had also picked up a quarrel with each other a few days ago. We are investigating all issues,’’ Dr. Boralingaiah said. All the accused are aged between 20 and 30. They were doing odd jobs and lived in rented rooms in Belagavi.
