Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar:

The crime branch police arrested a thief and a jeweller from Gangapur, on May 4, in connection with the much-talked broad daylight robbery which was held at Madhavwadi Tadpimpalgaon (in the jurisdiction of Devgaon Rangari police station) on April 11.

The police arrested the thief Gorakh Driver Chavan (30, Babargaon in Gangapur tehsil) on Thursday (May 4) and on the basis of information provided by him, the cops also arrested the jeweller Deepak Kachru Dandgavhal (49, Samarthnagar, Gangapur) to whom he had sold out the stolen ornaments.

The sensational house-breaking theft took place in the house of Rajendra Maroti Sonawane. The unidentified thieves fled away with cash and ornaments of valuing Rs 4.62 lakh. The crime branch police during the investigation came to know through their informer that the theft has been committed by a hardcore criminal on police record Gorakh Chavan.

Acting upon the information, the cops laid a trap and arrested the accused on May 4. During the investigation, Gorakh confessed that he had committed the crime with the help of his accomplice.
