Uttar Pradesh: Three accused in a robbery case at Kanpur were arrested by the police after one of the robbers was caught red-handed. Identified as Deepak, Sonu, and Sunil, residents of Naubasta of the region barged into the residence where a woman had recently died and her husband was out for last rites.
