A case was registered against Sandip under section 302 of the IPC and he was arrested around 12.30 am, he said. Kumar had gone to meet Sandip, 35, in an inebriated condition on Monday night. Taking advantage of Kumar's condition, Sandip beheaded him, wrapped his head in a polythene bag and dumped it at a vacant plot in Shankar Vihar colony, according to the police.
