The arrests came after two separate incidents of theft were recently reported at the Nagpur Railway Station. During investigations, police discovered that the gang was targeting passengers by closely observing them in the station premises while pretending to loiter with children.

Acting on specific inputs, Nagpur Railway Police laid a trap in the station premises and nabbed the suspects. The investigation has also revealed that the gang was involved in similar thefts at other major railway stations, including Ahmedabad, Secunderabad, and Surat. Multiple theft cases have been registered against them at various locations.
