New Delhi: A businessman who had mysteriously gone missing from West Delhi's Palam area on Friday, was found dead at the house of his employee, who has been arrested, police said today.

Body of 48-year-old Dara Singh, who was into jewellery and real estate businesses, was found in a bag at the house of his employee Tarsen, who has been arrested, they said.

Tarsen was unhappy over Singh denying to lend him money, and hatched a controversy along with his brother to kill him, police said.

He used to look after his real state work and was given a flat by Singh in Palam area.

On Friday night, Tarsen called Dara at his flat, where he and his brother killed him and stuffed his body in a suitcase.
