The Saifabad Police have caught three men who cheated a 65-year-old woman and stole her things.
The woman, G. Vijay Laxmi, took an auto-rickshaw from Mehdipatnam to Ameerpet on November 4, 2025.
She was carrying a gold chain, ₹12,000 in cash, clothes, a brown handbag, and a Samsung phone.
When the auto reached Lakdikapool, the driver said the auto was too hot and asked her to get down.
Once she got out, the driver drove away with her bag and the things inside it.
After receiving a complaint, the police started an investigation.
On November 10, 2025, they caught the three men at the Mehdipatnam bus stop.
The police found all the stolen items and sent the men to judicial custody.
