Investigators found that most of the offenders were repeat property crime suspects who formed small gangs to divert victims’ attention before stealing. Four of them — Mohammed Sajid, Shaik Abdul Waseem, Aslam Bin Barawas, and Mohd Shahzad — operated mainly in Rachakonda and Cyberabad limits using autos to snatch phones.
Meanwhile, Mohd Muqeed, Sohail Mohiuddin, and one juvenile focused on two-wheeler thefts under the Chikkadpally and Saroor Nagar police stations. Further checks revealed that Muqeed faced a conviction warrant in a robbery case, and several NBWs remained active against the group.
Acting on credible intelligence, the Task Force team traced and apprehended the offenders. Inspector S. Saidababu led the operation, assisted by SIs K. Rama Rao and M. Madhu, along with constables B. Shiva Lingam and T. Prashanth.
After completing formalities, the police handed the accused over to the respective stations for judicial remand.
