The five were arrested from South 24 Parganas's Hili on Tuesday, an officer said. "Several sharp weapons and firearms have been seized from them."
Hili, a town under Balurghat subdivision of the district, is a border checkpoint on the India-Bangladesh border.
Police said the five, all Indian residents, gathered near a village fair in Hili few days back with the motive of dacoity.
"The five dacoits were produced before a Balurghat court on Wednesday where they have been remanded to 14 days judicial custody," the officer added.
