Four persons have been arrested in Wayanad in connection with the snatching of gold from a jewellery trader in Chala late Thursday. District Police Chief (Thiruvananthapuram City) Arul R.B. Krishna said the arrested persons would soon be brought to Thiruvananthapuram.
Two more persons were being questioned in Thiruvananthapuram in connection with the theft. However, their role was yet to be ascertained, he said. The team that made the arrests recovered a gold bar weighing less than half a kg from one of the arrested persons.
The Fort circle inspector who is investigating the case will have to question the accused in Wayanad and complete relevant procedures before the recovery of the remaining gold. The theft occurred shortly after the trader Nandakumar closed his jewellery shop for the day.
He was headed for home on his scooter when two men on a motorcycle allegedly intercepted him and snatched his bag containing the gold before fleeing the scene. The investigators suspect that the theft may have been premeditated and carefully planned.
