Rs 3 crore 60 lakh were looted from two men after the robbers chased their car in four vehicles for several kilometres on the Pune-Solapur highway.
A dramatic highway chase coupled with firings led to a robbery worth crores in Pune in what seemed like an action scene from a movie.
Rs 3 crore 60 lakh were looted from two men after the robbers chased their car in four vehicles for several kilometres on the Pune-Solapur highway late on Thursday night.
It is yet to be known why the two men - Bhavesh Kumar Patel and Vijaybhai - were carrying such a big amount in a car. It is suspected the amount could be linked to a hawala racket.
In the incident that occurred in Indapur in Maharashtra's Pune district around 2 am on Friday, the robbers first tried to stop the victims' car when they slowed down near a speedbump, according to the police complaint.
