Arrests made in connection with murder of dairy owner

1 year ago

Police have made two arrests in connection with the murder of dairy worker Janak Patel in Sandringham on Wednesday night.
Police had released an image of an alleged attacker, and tonight took a 34 year old male into custody in New Lynn, charged with aggravated robbery and murder.
A 42-year old male has also been charged with robbery in relation to the incident.
Both men will appear in the Auckland District Court tomorrow.
The arrests come as some dairy owners say they're too scared to stay in business.
