Uttar Pradesh police Tuesday said they have arrested the real estate developer in connection with the death of an engineer in Noida, whose car had plunged into a deep pit at construction site.
The Uttar Pradesh government on Monday had removed the Greater Noida CEO Lokesh M and formed a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the incident.
The SIT is expected to submit its report to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath within five days.
Yuvraj Mehta (27), who worked in Gurugram, was returning to his home in Noida Sector 150 when his car fell into a deep, water-filled pit near an under-construction site on the night of January 16. He died after frantically pleading for help for around two hours.
