Two notorious robbers, who posed a public threat and prompted a police officer to open fire two days ago, were arrested on Sunday, the police confirmed.

Masood Ur Rahman, identified as the primary offender, has a history of criminal activities and worked as a welder and cab driver. According to a police release, he visited his aunt's residence in Musheerabad, where he roped in Fazal Ur Rahman, the second accused, to commit a series of robberies.

The duo, armed with daggers, embarked on a crime spree that began with stealing a scooter and culminated in a phone robbery attempt at Secunderabad. Their actions prompted an Anti-Snatching team chase, during which a constable fired at their getaway vehicle, hitting Masood's leg. Despite being wounded, the suspects managed to flee but were apprehended within 48 hours by specialized investigation teams.
