  1. Sumit's Dismissal Spurs Robbery Scheme:

Sumit faced termination from his position in September, igniting a vengeful scheme to pilfer the company's office in the midst of Diwali festivities when cash inflow surged. Police investigations revealed Sumit's prior knowledge of the increased cash reserves, prompting the trio to execute their plan on October 16. Storming the Flipkart premises, they coerced the staff at gunpoint, seizing Rs 21 lakh before absconding with the cash stowed in their bags.

  1. Legal Action and Arrests:

Authorities promptly registered a case under relevant statutes, resulting in the arrest of two culprits following a thorough inquiry. Police recovered Rs 6.3 lakh, a vehicle, a simulated firearm, and an axe during the apprehensions. Ongoing investigations continue to delve deeper into the incident.
