Kolkata, July 8 -- The Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the alleged rape and murder of a 12-year-old girl in Baruipur, South 24 Parganas, has arrested a fourth suspect, police said on Wednesday.

He was arrested during an early morning operation at Basirhat in North 24 Parganas and is expected to be produced before a court in South 24 Parganas later in the day. Investigators are likely to seek his remand in police custody for further questioning....
