Upon receiving the complaint, a special team was formed under the supervision of senior police officials. The team analyzed CCTV footage, gathered forensic evidence, and tracked down leads. Within days, the police identified the suspects and arrested them from different hideouts in the city. The accused were found to be Bangladeshi nationals who had been living illegally in India.
Recovery of Stolen Items
