A couple who allegedly masterminded a daring multi-crore heist were done in by their craving for a fruit-flavoured drink near Uttarakhand's Hemkund Sahib.
According to Punjab Police, Mandeep Kaur and her husband Jaswinder Singh are kingpins of the daring heist at the office of a cash management firm at Ludhiana. Armed robbers overpowered guards at the office of CMS Services on June 10 and stole Rs 8 crore in cash.
Following the robbery, Mandeep Kaur and Jaswinder Singh went on a pilgrimage to Sikh shrine Hemkund Sahib, apparently to thank God for the success of their mission, Ludhiana Police Commission Mandeep Singh Sidhu said.
Police had received information that the couple had planned to flee to Nepal, but a lookout notice blocked their plans. They then decided to visit Hemkund Sahib, Kedarnath and Haridwar before planning their next step.
