India, May 26 -- The Delhi Police's crime branch on Sunday arrested a 30-year-old man from north Delhi's Yamuna Bazar area, 12 days after he allegedly strangled his 32-year-old neighbour in his hometown in Jharkhand's Sahibganj and fled the city. The accused was telling about the murder to someone in Delhi while consuming alcohol on Sunday, when a police informer overheard the story and told police, leading to the arrest, police said.

They then hid the body at a secluded place, fled the city, and came to Delhi....
