Later, the investigation was moved from Sector 49 to Sector 20 police station. Yadav was arrested by the Sector 20 police team. He has denied involvement and has been questioned before.
"The accused has been arrested by a team of Sector 20 police station which was investigating the case," Additional DCP (Noida) Manish Mishra told PTI.
