The Yeshwanthpur police on Thursday arrested three inter-State habitual offenders and recovered 15 gm of gold valuables and a fake pistol from them.
The accused, Amith, who hails from Uttar Pradesh, and his associates Manohar Singh and Ramesh from Rajasthan, allegedly barged into the house of a gold and cosmetic jewellery shop owner Kamal Singh on March 15. They threatened Ms. Singh, her daughter and her mother, and robbed a pair of gold earrings.
When the women tried to resist them, Amith and his friends snatched a mobile phone from one of the women. By then neighbours, on hearing the commotion, came to the house to investigate forcing the trio to flee.
