The accused is a resident of Joydebpur of Darikrishnagar in Parulia Coastal Police Station jurisdiction, he added.
Acting on a tip-off, Kolkata police sleuths conducted a raid in South 24-Parganas district's Parulia and arrested him when he was trying to flee, the officer said, adding that the accused will be produced in the court on Friday.
The bodies of Subir Chaki (61) and his driver Rabin Mondal (65) were found with multiple stab injuries on their neck, legs and back at different floors of the ancestral house of the executive in the southern part of the city's Golpark area on October 17.
