Bengaluru: As the pressure mounts on the police to crack the Rs 7.11 crore robbery case, Home Minister G Parameshwara on Friday said that the arrest of the accused is imminent.
Briefing reporters in Bengaluru, he said the investigators are following important leads.
"I don't want to divulge anything now as the probe is in progress. BJP will say a lot of things. We are a responsible government and we will catch them" the Home Minister said.
He added that once the perpetrators are caught many things, including if it was an insider job, would be revealed.
Meanwhile, while checking the Innova car left behind by the robbers, police have learnt that they had switched the plater to a UP registration from Karnataka registration soon after they fled Bengaluru after the heist.
Police strongly suspect that the robbers are holed up in Andhra Pradesh as the Innova was recovered there.
