Man who robbed banks “to repay loans” held

A young man who allegedly robbed two banks to repay his loans, after learning a few tricks from the internet, has been arrested by the city police here.

Since he knew how the banks functioned, it was easy for him to target the two branches,” said Mr. Sarangi. Since the young man spoke Odia language and CCTV footages showed him being alone, police suspected that he was someone trying to enter the world of crime.
