The Charkop police have arrested two burglars, including a minor, for breaking into shops and homes. The police believe that the two are part of a Pune-based gang that may have committed several burglaries in Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Thane. When they arrived in the Mumbai region to commit burglaries they would not reside in hotels and lodges to avoid the risk of coming under police scrutiny. They would reside in rented accommodations spending several days identifying potential targets and engaging in reconnaissance.
The Charkop police had literally hit a wall when there were no leads in the break-in at the gas agency in which the burglars had made away with R2.49 lakh in cash. Under the guidance of deputy commissioner of police Ajaykumar Bansal, police sub-inspector Ramesh Wagchure, along with their team, initiated the investigation that led to the successful arrest of the accused, said senior police inspector Jyoti Bagul Bhople of Charkop police station.
