Bhaskar Kalita was arrested in connection with a recent robbery on Rajgarh Road. He had allegedly snatched a gold chain and robbed two gold earrings, threatening the victim with a sharp weapon. Police seized the dagger and the scooty used in the crime from his possession.
In a separate case, Arjun Malakar was caught for snatching a mobile phone in Pub Sarania. Authorities recovered the stolen mobile phone and the scooty used in the act.
Both individuals have been charged, and legal action has been initiated against them.
