On Tuesday, 5 July 2022, the Visakhapatnam City Police arrested four men accused of physical assault and robbery at the Bharat Petrol Bunk at Lawson’s Bay Colony. As per the police reports, the accused attacked Santhosh Kumar, a worker at the petrol bunk, snatched Rs 4,700 in cash and fled the scene.
At 2:40 am on 4 July, P Rakesh (A1), T Gouresh (A2), C Nook Raju (A3), and K Poorna Prasanth Kumar (A4), entered the bunk and honked as all the workers were resting.
