The second accused Virendra Rawat (23), who was secured on Saturday, was brought to the city on Sunday by flight and will be remanded in judicial custody. Investigation revealed that first accused Amir Harsh, who was already arrested, was related to Virendra Rawat, and the duo was behind half of 15 thefts reported in the city. The duo reached the city on a flight and stayed at a hotel in Arumbakkam. They carried out the loot after hiring a two-wheeler through a mobile phone application, said police.
