The accused have been identified as Tarun Sharma (23) of Surjit Nagar, Shubham Singh (23) of Hargovind Nagar and Pankaj Kumar (27) of Hargobind Nagar. One of the gang members, Gurdev Singh of Giaspura, is yet to be arrested.

Additional DCP Jaskiranjit Singh Teja addressed a press conference regarding the matter.

ADCP Jaskiranjit Singh Teja said the police recovered 72 ATM cards from the gang which they had fraudulently exchanged with innocent persons on the pretext of helping them at ATM kiosks.
