Hyderabad, June 26 (Maxim News): In a major breakthrough, the Nampally Railway Police have arrested a man involved in train thefts, recovering gold ornaments worth ₹20 lakh from his possession during a routine check at Lingampally Railway Station on Thursday.
According to CI Praveen Kumar, the accused, Ballasagar Anil Kumar (32), a resident of the Leprosy Hospital area in Nalgonda district, was found loitering suspiciously at the station.
