Investigating a house break theft, the Madiwala police on Tuesday arrested a 40-year-old MBA graduate and two of his associates for stealing ₹3 lakh worth valuables.
The accused, Mohammed Avez, an MBA graduate from Hyderabad, Telangana, is a habitual offender involved in over a hundred House Break Theft (HBT) cases in multiple states. The accused was recently released from prison in Hyderabad. He would come to the city along with his two associates in a car and move around the residential areas to identify locked houses.
After identifying such locked houses, Avez would break in to steal valuables while his associates would keep a watch outside. The accused would park their car two km away from the house to avoid unnecessary attention and would carry only expensive and light weight valuables, police said.
