Srinagar, June 24 (IBNS) : Three people were arrested on Saturday in connection with the brutal killing of police officer Mohammed Ayub Pandith by a mob in Srinagar, taking the number of arrests in the case to five, NDTV reported quoting Director General of Police SP Vaid.

Two people were arrested on Friday evening.
