Police bust Dhoom-style burglary gang in Pune
Police in Pune caught a group of burglars from Meerut who were stealing gold and other valuable items from houses.
They were very clever and planned their robberies like a Bollywood movie called Dhoom.
They used fast bikes to escape quickly and then hid them in a truck to travel long distances.
The police found out about these robberies and caught three of the burglars.
They also found the stolen gold and the vehicles the burglars used.
The police think they have solved four big robberies that happened earlier this year.
