Burglars sell stolen goods, splurge Rs2.5 lakh on MD
Nagpur: In a case underscoring the nexus between crime and drug addiction, Pachpaoli police arrested three burglars, including a minor, who stole valuables worth Rs 5 lakh from three homes in the city, only to blow nearly half the loot — Rs 2.5 lakh — on consuming MD (Mephedrone) powder. The trio, apprehended by head constable Laxman Shende's team, targeted residences in Ram Lohiya Nagar, Vaishali Nagar and Ashok Nagar over a month. Police recovered stolen goods, including jewellery, worth Rs2.37 lakh. The accused, Rohit Bhagat and Yash Bhave, both 19, along with the minor, have a history of thefts, according to senior inspector Baburao Raut. "These burglars would sell stolen valuables and splurge the money on purchasing MD powder," Raut said. The police are pursuing the narcotics supplier linked to the trio. The burglars would target locked houses, break latches and locks with rods or iron angles. "They struck at multiple places before being nabbed," said Raut. The minor has been sent to a juvenile facility, while Bhagat and Bhave face charges for burglary and related offences.
