The police of Siddipet have arrested four persons in the sensational robbery case of ₹ 43.5 lakh that took place at the Sub-Registrar Office at the Siddipet district headquarters town on January 31. They have seized ₹ 34 lakh cash, a car, three cell phones and two motorcycles from the arrested persons.
The accused were identified as Gajje Raju (26), Yedama Saikumar (22), Balimpuram Karunakar (28) and Bigulla Vamshi Krishna (20).
Disclosing these details at Siddipet on Monday, Commissioner N. Swetha said that as many as 15 special teams were formed to trace and arrest the accused and technology came in handy in arresting them.
As speculation over the continuation of Minister for Scheduled Tribes Welfare B. Nagendra in the Cabinet persisted, with the demand for his resignation raised by the BJP in connection with the ₹94 crore scam at the Maharshi Valmiki Scheduled Tribes Development Corporation, his Cabinet colleagues came to his defence on Thursday.
