The Mumbai Crime Branch has successfully arrested Vinod Lakhan Pal (28), the prime accused in the Agripada robbery case, in which gold worth Rs 1.90 crore was stolen at gunpoint. The robbery occurred at Rishabh Jewellers on December 29, 2024, when the suspects assaulted the shop owner and an employee before fleeing with the valuables.

Based on technical leads, five teams from the Mumbai Crime Branch raided a farm in Simarabhata village, Tehsil Prithvikpur, District Niwadi, Madhya Pradesh, where Pal was arrested. He is currently being brought to Mumbai for further investigation.

In a related development, Santosh Kumar, a resident of Chirgaon, Jhansi, Uttar Pradesh, was arrested by local police.
