According to the police sources, the gang had arrived from north India via train to Mangaluru about 15 days back and had booked rooms at a lodge in Thokottu and bought a house for rent at Manchila. At the rented house, they had begun their plan for jewellery shop robbery.
Recently, the gang members had attacked persons going on two-wheelers during the nighttime in the Konaje and Ullal police station limits.
