Hyderabad, May 29 (Shoukat-PMI) On May 29, 2025, the Balapur Police arrested four notorious robbery offenders and recovered Rs. 28.20 lakhs in cash. The arrests were made based on credible information received by the police, leading to the recovery of the stolen amount.
The accused include Syed Abdul Khadar (34), a businessman from Errakunta; Habeed Haroon (41), a businessman from Jamal Banda, Hyderabad; Vardhan (34), a housekeeping worker from Chadrayangutta; and Rasikanth Bardan alias Kittu (31), a businessman from Laxmiguda. Another accused, Rasheed Khan, remains absconding.
According to police reports, the robbery took place when Ilyas, a resident of Santosh Nagar, was entrusted with delivering Rs. 29 lakhs to his son-in-law Kabeer for purchasing a plot through a relative. As Kabeer was not available in Hyderabad, the cash was handed over to Khadar, a friend of Ilyas. Khadar and his uncle Habeed Haroon hatched a plan to rob the money and involved the other accused.
They tracked the movements of the complainant carrying the cash and arranged a meeting at a dark spot near Total Gas, Errakunta, by sending a fake Google location. When the complainant and his friend arrived, Rasheed and Rasikanth arrived on a Pulsar bike, assaulted them with sticks, and robbed the entire amount before fleeing. The stolen money was then handed over to Khadar, who distributed Rs. 20,000 each to the co-accused and kept the rest at his residence.
The arrests were made under the direct supervision of Commissioner of Police Sri G. Sudheer Babu, IPS, and Deputy Commissioner of Police Smt. Sunitha Reddy, along with the Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police and Assistant Commissioner of Police of Maheshwaram Zone and Balapur police personnel.
The recovered items include Rs. 28.20 lakhs in cash, a Pulsar bike bearing registration number TS-12EG-4565, and four mobile phones.(pressmediaofindia.com)
