Gang held for robbing unsuspecting passengers

New Delhi, Jan 20 : Delhi police have arrested two robbers and apprehended three juveniles who were part of a gang which robbed unsuspecting passengers stranded at bus stops and lonely stretches in the national capital. The police team from Jahangirpuri also recovered a stolen Eco car from their possession.
The main accused, Ankit and Mahabir, both in their early twenties, along with three children in conflict with law (CCL) were nabbed on Wednesday morning from near the Mukarba Chowk on Karnal Bypass.
