The city police on Tuesday arrested ten members of at least three gangs involved in several looting incidents in the city and its vicinity. Speaking to reporters here, Twin City Police Commissioner Dr RP Sharma said the miscreants were involved in at least a dozen incidents in the city and in nearby areas. “Special squads of the Cuttack police seized four pistols, nine bullets and three bhujalis from their possession,” Sharma said, adding that ten motorcycles and ten mobile phones were also seized from them.
The police also retrieved some gold jewelleries, including four gold chains, from their possession. The Badambadi police and the Cantonment police were involved in the special drive to bust the gangs that were creating nuisance for past several months.
