New Delhi, Aug 6 (IANS) The Delhi Police have claimed to have arrested two members of a Bangladeshi gang, who were involved in more than 100 cases of dacoity across India. They had been declared proclaimed offender by a Delhi court, the police said on Tuesday.

They were previously convicted in many cases in Delhi and NCR, Naik said.
"They used to enter India through the Benapole border and target houses in posh colonies. They used to enter the house late in night by cutting window grill, overpower all residents and loot the valuables. They would even kill the residents in case of resistance," the DCP said.
The gang members mostly resided in and around railway stations or in the forested areas of the cities, Naik added.
