The Chandra Layout police on Thursday arrested a young man, who works at a lodge in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, for allegedly breaking into houses in Bengaluru and stealing valuable items, while investigating a case reported last year.
The accused, identified as Satish Satisha, 24, is part of the housekeeping staff at a lodge in Tirupati.
“He would come to the city on his motorcycle just to commit burglaries and targeted cars parked outside hotels as well as homes. From Bengaluru he would move on to Vellore, Chennai, and other cities in Tamil Nadu before returning to Andhra Pradesh,” said a police officer. The police recovered cash and valuables worth ₹8.7 lakh from him.
