A police team investigating the murder of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) worker A. Sreenivasan has recovered a machete used by the assailants. The police team also recovered the dress worn by one of the assailants while committing the murder.
The police took two of the accused, Abdul Rahman, 20, Firok K., who were arrested on Tuesday, to different sites for verification on Wednesday.
The police said it was Abdul Rahman who hacked Sreenivasan using a machete when Firos had driven the bike. The machete was recovered from near a quarry at Mambra, Kallekkad. Wrapped in a plastic cover, the machete was found abandoned at a bamboo cluster. The police said the weapon had blood stains on it.
