The police have claimed to have cracked the case of loot involving Rs 1.8 lakh from Parveen Kumar, employee of a private hospital. The police stated that the case was fake.

The police said Parveen and his friends concocted the loot story. The police arrested Parveen, Deepak and Vikram, residents of Bastara village. They seized Rs 1.8 lakh and impounded the motorcycle used.
