2 active members of an interstate robbery gang were arrested by Dhanbad police on Monday. Dilip Yadav and Ajay Kumar from Motihari, Bihar were caught during a special check. Police seized a country-made pistol, two live cartridges, and a fake number plate from them. The duo was scouting jewelry shops in Dhanbad for a big heist. They have multiple robbery cases against them in Bihar's Motihari and Araria districts. The criminals first observe traders' activities, then plan night robberies. Some gang members are still active in Bihar, supplying weapons and vehicles. Police are investigating their network across Jharkhand and Bihar border areas. DSP Naushad Alam said this action prevented a major crime during the festive season. (Updated 27 Oct 2025, 17:09 IST; source: link)
