A woman named Mahak Ahmed was found dead in her friend's apartment in Noida.
Her friend, Raman Raj, became the main suspect.
After the murder, he ran away and hid.
Police searched for him for about a week.
They even travelled to his hometown in Bihar.
But before they could catch him, another police force arrested him.
He was arrested for having five litres of alcohol.
That is against the law in Bihar, which is a dry state.
Now the Noida police are working to bring him back.
They want to question him about the murder.
Raman Raj, the prime accused in the murder of Mahak Ahmed, was arrested in Bihar's Katihar.
