In a significant breakthrough, police have arrested four members of an inter-statet gang responsible for executing major thefts across several districts of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. The arrests were made after a tip-off from an informant led to a successful operation near Japanapur Mod, where the gang members were encircled and apprehended.
The police seized valuable stolen items, including silver worth ₹10 lakh, gold worth ₹2.5 lakh, along with tools used for committing thefts and cash. The arrested individuals have been identified as Bhola, Raju, Suresh, and Sonu.
During interrogation, the gang members confessed to their involvement in several high-profile thefts across the two states. The police are now investigating their links to other unsolved cases.
