New Delhi, Sep 21 (Inditop.com) Four motorcyclists have been arrested here for their alleged involvement in a series of robberies across the national capital, police said Monday.
Sleuths of the crime branch’s anti-robbery cell arrested Chandrabhan, Amit, Santosh Kumar and Chandra Mohan from Sadar Bazar area in north Delhi Sunday and seized two country-made firearms, four live cartridges and two motorcycles from their possession.
“They were wanted in at least nine cases of robberies reported in different parts of the national capital. In their interrogation they revealed having invested the looted wealth in a hotel in Paharganj area and also in a cable TV network in west Delhi,” said Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Neeraj Thakur.
The police said the gang used to rob people at gun-point and then flee on the motorcycles.
Chandrabhan developed sources for getting information of people carrying large amounts of cash. He along with his accomplices would usually follow their intended victim from the old Delhi area on two-three motorcycles.
“At an isolated spot, they would stop the vehicle of the victim and rob him at gun-point. If the victim was travelling in a bus, they would stop the bus, force the victim to get down from the bus and then rob him,” said Thakur.
