Two individuals from Haryana have been apprehended by the Kalavai police in connection with a recent ATM robbery that netted ₹7 lakh. The incident occurred on July 15 at an ATM located along the Cuddalore-Chittoor Road (NH 38) near Mulluvadi village in Ranipet district. The suspects identified as R. Sanjay, 25, and N. Rubin, 24, hail from Ferozepur Jhirka in Haryana.
They were part of a six-member gang involved in the heist. Special teams have been deployed to apprehend the remaining gang members, with all stolen cash expected to be recovered soon, according to Deputy Superintendent S. Kannagaraj of Ranipet. Initially, on July 15, bank officials noticed a lack of ATM withdrawals, leading them to the scene, where they discovered the ATM had been forcibly damaged and cash stolen.
Based on SP P. Sibin's orders, special teams were formed, and CCTV footage analysis led to the identification of the duo. They were intercepted in Haryana and brought to Ranipet, where they are currently lodged at the Central Prison in Vellore. A further investigation is underway.
