The accused then motivated his brother and friends to rob the businessman’s house. They hatched a plan in such a way in which the entire blame for the crime falls on the servant’s head. But their plan went awry.

During the interrogation it has also came to light that they were also behind the blaze at Handa’s readymade garment store in Model Town last year. The accused had set ablaze the store as they wanted to rob the cash from there. Giving further information on how the case was cracked, the police commissioner said that the keys of the scooter in which they came to the spot helped them to solve the case.

“The accused had kept the safe which they robbed, in Handa’s vehicle on which they wanted to escape, but they failed to do so as the police reached the spot . The keys of their scooter fell in the vehicle as they fled the spot on their foot in a huff,” said Shukla. Police noticed the abandoned scooter and unlocked it with the keys they found inside the vehicle. Documents recovered from the scooter led the police to the accused.
