A murder accused who was out on bail was arrested on Tuesday for killing a 46-year-old man during a drunken brawl in suburban Gowandi, police said. Khandu Maruti Dahibhate, the deceased, worked with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, said a police official.

Dahibhate and accused Murtuza Khan, a neighbor, were drinking liquor at the former's shanty in New Gautam Nagar on Monday night when they had a tiff, he said.

Khan, who had recently got bail in a murder case, allegedly stabbed Dahibhate multiple times.

He was held on suspicion and arrested after he confessed to the killing, said sub-inspector Shrikant Patil of Deonar police station.
