Sources said the arrested individuals are currently being questioned at local police stations. However, the local police are yet to officially confirm the development.

Investigators have completed the identification process and obtained the suspects’ photographs based on available technical and circumstantial evidence.

The vehicles’ registration numbers, captured in CCTV footage, played a key role in tracking the suspects.
