The city police have intensified their special drive against rowdy-sheeters in the city. Central Crime Branch (CCB), on Friday, targeted four of the most active gangs in Bengaluru led by Ravi, Sunila, Naga from Wilson Garden and Narayana on Friday. Police teams raided the houses of 58 such persons known to be associated with these gangs, and are questioning them. Over the last one month, Bengaluru has seen three high-profile and brazen murders — of Rekha Kadiresh, Lakkasandra Madhu and Joseph Babli — prompting city police to take up special drives against rowdy-sheeters. Two weeks ago, the city police had raided the houses of 116 such persons across the city.More Related News
