Coimbatore: Instagram Couples Robbed By Watching YouTube Got Caught

Instagram couples who learnt to steal via Youtube got caught in Vadavalli, Coimbatore. The activity of these couples has caused a great stir in the locality.

Old man Rayappan lives with his wife Rajammal in Vadavalli. His son is working as a software Engineer in Chennai. Yesterday afternoon around 2 pm, a couple, a boy was holding a general knowledge book and bag, requested water to Rayappan. At that time, his wife Rajammal went to the hospital, and the older man was alone at home.

When the old man went to get water, this couple followed him, stuck plaster in his mouth, tied him, and pushed him inside the kitchen. The couple named Dinesh Kumar and Shenbagavalli surfed around to the house to steal a maximum of money, gold and things. They looted maximum and tried to escape from the house via the back door.

At that time, daughter-in-law Sangeetha who came from Chennai, tried to catch the thief couples. She screamed so that the neighbours would hear. Following this, the girl got caught, and the boy escaped. Sangeetha was shocked to see the old man being tied. Later the boy also came to the spot since the girl was caught.

It was said that they took 100 to 150 pavan gold. The neighbours immediately informed the police. During the investigation, it was known that this couple had fallen in love on Instagram for six months. In order to enjoy the love life through outings, they target aged people and steal from their houses. 

The couple were graduates, and they had learned the stealing skill via youtube. They carried nail cutters, pointed rods, plaster, screwdrivers and other items that helped them to steal. Police have confiscated more than two number plates and Dinesh Kumar's scooty.
