Bengaluru: Inspired by a recent Kannada movie that depicted a popular actor wielding a gun,  a 28-year-old man allegedly robbed train passengers after threatening them with a dummy pistol.

The accused have been identified as  Ravi Singh(28) from Bihar, and Sandeep (31) of Uttar Pradesh. Ravi Singh was living in the city for more than 10 years and speaks Kannada fluently.

The accused would barge into trains that stopped at railway crossings at night and threaten passengers with a fake gun before making away with their gold valuables and cash.

Police arrested them after receiving a tipoff that the accused were heading to a pawnbroker to pledge the stolen gold. Also, police recovered loot worth Rs 3 lakh.
