CP Joshi said that the accused had been involved in theft and burglary of the locked houses in different States. “As they were habituated to ill habits, they started committing the thefts by breaking open the houses and flats in the apartments,” he said.

The accused committed house burglaries in Ahmedabad and Vadodara of Gujarat, and Arundalpet of Guntur district. They were arrested by the Arundalpet police and kept in the jail for nine months. But after getting released from the jail, they resumed the burglaries to earn easy money to meet their lavish lifestyle. They committed 10 burglaries/thefts under Warangal police commissionerate limits since 2021. The police were able to nab him as the fingerprints collected at the scenes of offences were matched with the data available with the Arundalpet police of Guntur city.

The Police Commissioner congratulated the special teams led by Central Zone Additional DCP K Pushpa Reddy for successfully arresting the main accused and recovering the stolen property. The accused have allegedly committed offences in Suryapet district of Telangana, and Nellore district of Andhra Pradesh. CCS Inspectors L Ramesh Kumar, K Srinivas Rao, Hanamkonda Inspector Ch Srinivas Ji were part of the teams that nabbed the habitual offenders.
