He was arrested by the Uttar Pradesh police last week in connection with the incident on June 3, 2006. Singh's involvement in the Nimbalkar murder case was revealed after another arrested accused Parasmal Jain in his statement to the police said that he had hired shooter Singh to murder Nimbalkar.
The CBI is also on the look-out of another shooter Chotu Pandey and BSP worker Kailash Yadav, who allegedly organised for the shooters.
