Gurugram (PTI): Four men were arrested in Nuh in Haryana for their alleged involvement in robbing a container full of Bengaluru-bound Amazon orders worth Rs 18 lakh from Karnataka, police said.
The men involved in the theft were allegedly planning to sell the stolen goods in Nuh and Palwal in Haryana, they said. The stolen goods are yet to be recovered.
All four men allegedly involved in the robbery on Friday have been handed over to the Karnataka Police for further probe.
According to police, an FIR was registered in Karnataka on Sunday on the complaint of Rajesh Kumar, an executive of Camions Logistics Solutions Private Limited.

When the team reached the spot, Muwarik said Pankaj gave him a cold drink near Belgaum, after which he became unconscious. When he regained consciousness, Pankaj was missing, and the rear portion of the vehicle was found cut open.
It was found that 432 Amazon packets kept in the vehicle, with an estimated value of Rs 18.67 lakh, had been stolen, police said.
