A shocking burglary case has come to light after police arrested a highly educated man who once worked at a leading IT company in Hyderabad. The accused, identified as Sunny, had completed his post-graduation and previously held a respectable corporate job. However, his desire for an expensive lifestyle slowly pulled him into the world of crime. According to investigators, frequent foreign trips, luxury spending, and lavish habits forced him to choose illegal means to fund his lifestyle.
Long Criminal Past Raises Serious Concerns
Police revealed that Sunny’s criminal history dates back to his teenage years. He entered the criminal path at just 15 years of age. Earlier, he spent time in a juvenile home and later served a 14-month sentence at Rajahmundry Central Jail. Over the years, police across Andhra Pradesh booked him in more than 60 theft cases. Despite repeated arrests, he continued his criminal activities without reform.
Arrest After Multiple House Burglaries in Visakhapatnam
Recently, Visakhapatnam police cracked 26 house burglary cases reported from Gajuwaka, Arilova, Malkapuram, Pendurthi, and Duvvada areas. During the investigation, officers traced the pattern and arrested Sunny. Officials confirmed that the burglaries caused losses worth ₹24.66 lakh, creating panic among residents in several localities.
Gold, Vehicles, and Tools Seized
During the arrest, police recovered 699 grams of gold ornaments worth ₹15.63 lakh and 3.8 kilograms of silver articles. In addition, officers seized a BMW car and a scooter, both purchased using stolen money. Police also confiscated burglary tools used during the crimes.
How He Executed the Burglaries
Investigators said Sunny mainly targeted locked houses during late-night hours. He wore a mask and used tools like hammers and screwdrivers to break locks. Police stated that his method showed careful planning, but repeated crimes ultimately exposed him.
Authorities urged citizens to remain alert and report suspicious activity immediately.
