India, July 16 -- Two men were arrested on Wednesday in connection with the murder of a 35-year-old man whose decomposed body was found in Delhi's Dwarka Sector 18 on Sunday, police said.

Police had identified the deceased as Akhilesh Mandal, 38, a resident of Najafgarh, who was bludgeoned to death using a hammer. Police identified the accused as 28-year-old Raju Kumar, Mandal's nephew, and 66-year-old Anil Thakur, who worked as a security guard.

According to senior police officers, both the accused had separate motives for the murder. Police said that Thakur held a grudge against Mandal as he was preventing him from selling his house, whereas Kumar suspected Mandal of being in a relationship with his wife.
