The Delhi police have arrested a gang of women thieves, who were inspired by a Bollywood movie and entered in the world of crime. The local police have arrested five members of the gang.
The local police also arrested Gurvachan (45), who allegedly bought the stolen material from the gang.
While talking to media, Deputy Commissioner of Police (west), Mr. Sharad Aggarwal said, "Forty-eight batteries used for providing back up in signal towers of mobile service provider which the gang allegedly stole were recovered from them."
The police said that the gang leader Geeta (30), Kela (32), Krishna (40), Ompati (40), Sheela (20) were arrested from Peera Garhi Chowk in Paschim Vihar on secret information.
Mr. Aggarwal said, "Geeta told us they are from poor families and their husbands are drunkards and drug-addicts. To survive and feed their families they first worked as ragpickers and also committed some petty thefts. Then Geeta met a woman who motivated them to commit bigger crimes and gave them example of Dhoom-2 in which a woman thief takes advantage of her gender."
