Police have arrested two Nigerians for the m8rder of a fellow Nigerian, Lucky Ikechukwu Ijeh in Pragati Nagar, Nalasopara East, Maharashtra, India. 

32-year-old Lucky was m8rdered in the early hours of Sunday, September 21, 2025 by the suspects who were said to be his friends.

It was gathered that the suspects identified as Ayoola Babajide Batholomew, 50, Oghene Igere, 47, and Odia Izu Peculiar, 50, smashed a bottle on Lucky's head following a heated argument. 

Odia is absconding and a search is on to find him, police officers told Hindustan Times. 

The Tulinj cops have registered an offence under sections of m3rder against the three accused. 

According to the police, the incident took place at Pragati Nagar, which is home to a large number of Nigerians. 

Shortly after midnight on Sunday, the three accused were standing near the Monu Grocery Shop when the deceased arrived there. 

The four Nigerians were talking among themselves when an argument broke out between them over a trivial matter, witnesses told the police.

The witnesses could not understand their language and did not know what they were arguing about. 

"Soon, the argument took a violent turn, and two of the accused smashed a glass bottle on Lucky's head and assaulted him with sticks, causing him to bleed to d3ath on the spot, witnesses told us,” said a police officer, requesting anonymity.

The police reached the spot after being informed by locals and arrested Bartholomew and Igere while Peculiar managed to flee from the scene. 

"Based on the statements of witnesses, we registered a murder case against the three Nigerian nationals under sections 103 (2) and 3 (5) of the Indian Penal Code," the officer from Tulinj police station said.

"We suspect the accused were rival drug peddlers and were arguing about some business deal."
