01/06/2015 Rs 49 lakh looted from bank to pay dowry, four arrested |
Patna,(BiharTimes): The Bhagalpur police on Saturday arrested four persons, including a married woman, in connection with Rs 49 lakh bank dacoity in Bhagalpur district. What is amazing is that the dacoity was committed in the main branch of Bihar Regional Rural Bank at the Clock Tower Chowk on May 26 to pay the dowry of Rs 10 lakh.
Kanhaiya is said to be the mastermind of the loot. He is still at large so is his ‘samadhi’ (Ruchi’s father-in-law), Kameshwar Yadav. The police team recovered Rs 3.97 lakh from a refrigerator in the house of Ruchi Devi, whose husband Mithlesh Yadav, is a history-sheeter. He is also on the run. According to the police Kanhaiya conceived the plan to loot cash from the bank for the marriage of his youngest daughter with the son of one Rudal Yadav of Ramchandrapur village under Goradih block. The dacoity surprised the police top brass in Patna too with DGP, P K Thakur, taking personal interest in it
