The occasion of Bhau Beej proved auspicious for officials of the Crime Branch (Unit V) after they arrested three sisters wanted for several housebreakings from their uncle’s residence in Jogeshwari, where they had come to celebrate the festival with their brothers. The three were identified as Anita Prakash Patil (26), Sujata Rafiq Shaikh (24) and Meena Umesh Ingale (21). Officials said the fourth sister, their accomplice, is at large. The trap was laid after Constable Santosh Patil received a tip-off that the trio would be visiting their brothers on Bhau Beej.

While Anita keeps an eye out, Sujata walks out of the house with the booty, as shown in the CCTV footage recorded in October
