How to identify the approver?

Can we identify the user who approved the request from the group approvals? If yes, Can anyone please suggest me how to check? I found one way, each approval step is recorded in Journal fields but I am not expecting this way to check.

Assuming you are using a workflow when you are triggering the approval. Suppose in the workflow a catalog task should be created after the approval. Then task is created by the person who approved the request. That means If I approve the request the task will be created with created_by value as my ID. That is one way. From UI (Approvers related list) you can always make out who from the group approved. So I am not sure what exactly you are trying to achieve.

Suppose I have 5 members in the group. Approval request sent to that respective group. Among 5 approvers, 3rd user/approver will approve it. I need that  3rd person approver details immediately to capture. 

The only possibility is to capture it via business rule on sysapproval_approver table. where whenever a record is approved ... you can play with Approver and approval for to get your data
