August 23, 2015
Four persons were arrested by the police near Tirupur late last night and arms and ammunition were recovered from them.
The police received a tip that a gang was trying to sell weapons near Thekkalur, about 40 km from Tirupur. They found the four members moving in a very suspicious manner in an autorickshaw. Among the seized weapons were a country-made pistol and 10 cartridges. The autorickshaw was also seized by the police.
