The suspect, P. Jurise, 26, son of Saithalavi, was nabbed on a tip-off received by Deputy Commissioner of Police, Swapnil Madhukar Mahajan. According to the police, the youth, along with his partners in the crime, was engaged in converting international telephone calls into local calls using the illegal telephone network.
