India, June 23 -- A businessman and his associate caught two alleged robbers after a gang of five posing as police officers tried to flee with a bag containing Rs.50,000 in Khar on Sunday. The Khar police arrested the two accused identified as Sanjay Dashrath Mhatre and Shakti Singh and launched a search for their three accomplices who allegedly lured the victims with the promise of arranging business funding.

According to the complaint filed by Shubharkar Narayan Salian, 42, a hotel material supplier and land broker from Kandivali (West), a man identified as Jignesh approached him about 15 days ago while he was travelling on a local train.
