Divya Pahuja, a former model and girlfriend of slain gangster Sandeep Gadoli, was allegedly killed by the owner of City Point Hotel Abhijeet Singh on January 2.
The police have so far arrested four persons including the prime accused, Abhijeet Singh, Om Prakash, Hemraj, and a woman Megha.
The woman had helped Abhijeet in hiding, throwing away the murder weapon, documents, and personal belongings of Divya Pahuja, 27, who was murdered by
Abhijeet.
Om Prakash and Hemraj had helped Abhijeet to drag Divya's body into the boot of a BMW car. Later Balraj and Ravi fled with the body and were still on the run.
According to Abhijeet, who allegedly shot Divya in the head, had called Megha to Hotel City Point after the murder and asked her to dispose of the belongings of the deceased woman. Megha told the police that when she reached the hotel, she saw Divya's body.
Abhijeet asked her to dispose of the belongings of the deceased woman, but she was too scared to follow his instructions, sources said.
According to sources, Megha was working with an online food delivery company.
Police said that Divya's body might have been thrown into a water body near Patiala.
Searches are being made in the area by special teams, accompanied by divers.
Divya was shot dead in Gurugram's Hotel City Point on January 2.
The police have recovered the car which was used to take the body to Patiala, but have not recovered the body yet.
According to police, Abhijeet and Divya were in a relationship.
He told the police that he shot at her in a fit of rage after she refused to delete some of his objectionable pictures.
During questioning, he said that Divya used to blackmail him and also extorted money.
Divya came in contact with Abhijeet through a jailed gangster, Binder Gujjar.
Gujjar had asked Abhijeet to assist with his children's education and during that phase, Abhijeet came in contact with Divya. Binder Gujjar is said to be the prime conspirator in the alleged "fake encounter" of gangster Sandeep Gadoli, along with the Gurugram Police, which took place in Mumbai in 2016.
Divya was the prime accused in the case. Later, she was arrested in connection with the gangster's murder, and she spent seven years in jail.
She was granted bail last year in June by the Bombay High Court.
Divya's family has alleged that her murder was conspired by Sandeep Gadoli's family members, along with Abhijeet.
