Hyderabad: A wave of fear grips Hyderabad as a daring gang, known as the 'Chudidar Gang,' wreaks havoc on residential complexes. Disguised as women in traditional chudidars and masks, these criminals have been brazenly targeting apartments.  According to the media reports, the gang's latest heist occurred on the night of May 18th at the Akruthi Arcade Apartment complex in SR Nagar. K. Venkateshwar Rao, a resident, locked his apartment before leaving for Ongole with his family. Upon returning on Saturday morning, Rao's maid discovered a broken lock and alerted the authorities.

CCTV footage captured the chilling scene, two figures clad in chudidars and masks breaking into Rao's apartment in the wee hours of May 18th. The burglars decamped with a hefty haul - four tolas of gold, Rs. 1 lakh in cash, and a laptop. The police have registered a case and are currently investigating the incident. Due to the suspects' disguise, comparisons are being drawn to the "Cheddi Gang," a known group of criminals who employed similar tactics in the past. Citizens are advised to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the police.
