Man Held at Secunderabad Station for Stealing Passenger’s Gold, Cash

The arrested person was identified as Borabanda resident and grocery store employee Muhammad Muzammil. Silver ornaments worth Rs 30,000 were seized from the arrested person.

A transgender named Varthyavath Ammu alias Tharun from Amangal was absconding in the case. Both Muzamil and Tharun have been friends since 2024. As they developed habits such as consuming alcohol, smoking and indulging in other vices, they decided to steal valuables on trains to earn easy money to cover their expenses.

Accordingly, on March 28, 2026, both of them came to Secunderabad railway station with the intention of committing theft. They entered coach S3 of the Godavari express from the first platform and stole a passenger handbag, which contained a gold necklace, silver ornaments and other imitation jewelery apart from cash.

The theft occurred when the passenger hid the bag under the seat. Based on the complaint, the police registered a case and arrested the suspects under suspicious circumstances at Secunderabad police station.
