Following arrest of two burglars, who had been involved in as many as 11 house-breakings and thefts in Rachakonda police limits, earlier this month, the police after their custody and interrogation recovered 520 grams gold ornaments, 500 grams silverware and other material.

Rachakonda Police Commissioner Mahesh M Bhagwat displaying the recovered material on Monday said both Rafikul Khan and Shaik Suraj hailing from Murshidabad of West Bengal were highly skilled thieves.

“They just walk or use their Atlas bicycle to conduct recce in select localities during daytime and break open houses at night. Once they collect a quantity of the loot, they travel to Murshidabad to hand over it to their network of goldsmiths,” he explained.
