A 31-year-old Delhi man, Yuvraj Singh Manchanda, who went missing after a meeting in Gurugram, was allegedly murdered, his body later found in a drain. Police have arrested his former colleague, Anya Vats, and her partner, Sanyam Sachdeva.

Manchanda, an HR professional from Sarita Vihar, was last seen on September 6. He informed his family he had a meeting in Gurugram with Vats and expected to return by 10 pm. When he failed to return and his phone was switched off, his family filed a missing person report.

Both Vats and Sachdeva have been remanded to five days of police custody. Authorities are working to establish the complete sequence of events and the motive behind the alleged murder.
