‘Padappai’ Guna, Prasanth, Santhosh and Purushothaman are prominent among those who were arrested by police. Mr. Guna has as at least six murder cases and about 20 other cases pending against him and Mr.Purushothaman was allegedly involved in murders and attempt to murders.
Mr. Sudhakar said, “Three teams have been constituted exclusively for the purpose of tracing and nabbing the rowdies who have history sheets against them in the district. Each team has been given specific tasks. A list was prepared on rowdies who had non-bailable warrants pending against them; absconding from criminal cases and history sheets on them.”
When asked whether the local gang from Kancheepuram and Sriperumpudur were involved in looting the container trucks of mobile phones, the SP said there was no involvement of locals.
