Nasur and Junaid were allegedly abducted on February 15 and their charred bodies were found inside a burnt car in the Loharu area of Bhiwani in Haryana on the morning of February 16.
The Rajasthan Police in February had booked five persons linked to Bajrang Dal in the case and arrested one of them, Rinku Saini.
The FIR registered at Gopalgarh police station named five persons – Monu, Anil, Srikant, Rinku Saini and Lokesh Singhla. All are from Haryana and associated with Bajrang Dal.
