Police have arrested four more suspects involved in the Sultanpur loot case. They recovered nearly 20 million rupees worth of jewelry stolen from a jewelry shop. According to sources, during interrogation, the suspects revealed that the conspiracy for the incident was planned in room number 404 of the ITI Colony in Raebareli district.
It is said that Vipin Singh from Amethi, the mastermind of the loot, stayed in this room with his accomplices for about a month. The loot division also took place in this room, number 404.
After this revelation, local residents reported that a few young men stayed there but didn't interact much with anyone. They came and went in a four-wheeler. Recently, the police came, searched the room, and left the neighborhood in shock. They couldn't believe such a significant crime had connections to their colony.
