The gang adopted a modus operandi for committing offenses only on inner wears to evade being caught by the police. The gang members travelled to their targeted locations in trains from their home town and committed burglaries in secluded residential colonies. They also did not hesitate to attack those resisting them and were involved in 30 burglaries in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.

The ‘Chaddi gang’ was arrested by the Meerpet police in August 2018 and since then is lodged in the central prison in Cherlapally.

Rachakonda Police Commissioner Mahesh Bhagwat appreciated the investigation officer, public prosecutor and the court duty staff for their efforts in securing a conviction.
