The Pune rural police recently made a significant breakthrough by apprehending a gang that was involved in a series of blackmail and robbery cases through a popular dating app. The gang, consisting of three members, would use the app to lure unsuspecting victims to meet them on the Pune-Nagar highway. Once the victims arrived, they would be threatened, assaulted, and robbed of their belongings. The gang would also take compromising photos of the victims to use for blackmail.
After conducting a thorough investigation, the police were able to identify and arrest the three individuals responsible for these heinous crimes. The accused were found to have committed multiple robberies in the Shikrapur area, with one victim managing to escape and report the incident to the authorities. It was discovered that the gang primarily targeted individuals in the Shikrapur area by using Grindr to establish contact and set up meetings.
The gang members have been charged with multiple offenses and are currently being held in police custody. The police are urging anyone who may have been a victim of this gang to come forward and provide any information that could help with the ongoing investigation. This case serves as a reminder to exercise caution when using dating apps and to be aware of potential risks associated with meeting strangers online.
