Hyderabad (Telangana): Two MBA graduates, both friends, were arrested in Warangal district on Sunday for allegedly indulging in snatching chains to meet their daily expenses, a senior police official said. Three gold chains and two bikes were seized from them. While one ran a paan shop, the other was a medical representative, Warangal Police Commissioner Tarun Joshi said.

The men, both aged 32 and alcohol addicts, used to spend their income lavishly and hatched a plan to earn quick money through chain snatching as they were unable to meet their raising expenditure, police said. Going around on bikes, they targeted women walking alone in rural areas and snatched their chains. Police nabbed the duo on suspicion when they tried to escape after noticing vehicle checks were being conducted.
