Police on Tuesday made public four people accused of murdering two Indian nationals at Karaiya-8 in Bara District.

Samsul Hoda, Mojahir Ansari, Asish Singh and Umesh Kumar Kurmi of Bara were made public amidst a press conference at the District Police Office, Bara, this afternoon.

They were arrested on charge of murdering Dipak Ram, 18, and Arun Ram, 28, of East Champaran, India, said police.

It has been learnt that the Ram duo were uncle and nephew.

Police had found their bodies in the forest at Karaiya-8 on December 28.

Superintendent of Police (SP) Narendra Prasad Uprety said they filed the case of organised crime against the accused as they are found involved with the international racket.

SP Uprety said Hoda, who was staying in Dubai before the incident, had connection with Pakistani national named Safi.

“Hoda had called two Indian nationals in Bara taking the help of local Brij Kishor Giri and the group killed the Ram duo for money,” said SP Uprety, adding, “Giri is undergoing treatment at the Maharjgunj-based Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital.”

Giri had sustained bullet injuries in his legs.

Hoda, who had contested the Constituent Assembly II elections as a candidate of Rastriya Madesh Samajbadi Party, had been staying in Dubai for the past one-and-a-half years.

He was brought to Nepal from Dubai with the help of Interpol on Sunday, informed police.

Indian Police is also investigating the same case after the arrest of Moti Paswan, Umashankar Patel and Mukesh Yadav of Gumhariya, Bihar in India.

Police said that they apprehended the accused based on the call details.

They called the Ram duo on the pretext of organising a picnic in the forest, according to police.

According to a preliminary investigation, Hoda had planned to explode bombs at Ghorasahan and Adapur-based Railway Stations in Nakardehi, India.

The investigation showed that Hoda had assured Ansari, Singh, Kurmi and Giri to provide Rs 30 million after killing the Ram duo.

Police said that Hoda had also included the Ram duo in the team.

After they failed to explode bombs in the train stations, Hoda with the help of others killed them in the forest in Bara, said police.
