SHILLONG, SEP 21: Two persons were arrested for their involvement in a recent armed robbery case in Shillong.

They have been identified as Max Eric Syiemlieh (25) and Melvon Tongwah (22), East Khasi Hills SP Sylvester Nongtnger said on Saturday.

The arrest was made after an FIR was lodged at Sadar Police Station on September 18, regarding an armed robbery that occurred on September 14.

The complainant reported that, after closing his shop for the day, he was confronted by three individuals on separate scooters near Little Blossom School.

The assailant brandished weapons and issued threats before another individual arrived on a separate scooter, retrieving a metal rod from the boot.

The group proceeded to search the complainant’s belongings and robbed him of Rs 10,200 from his day’s sales, Nongtnger said.

He informed a criminal case was promptly registered and during the course of the investigation, the two suspects were arrested on September 20.

Further, the SP said it is worth noting that these two individuals are also linked to an attempted robbery at Hideaway Café on September 16, during which they assaulted one person.

The investigation is ongoing, with efforts underway to apprehend the remaining suspects in the crimes, he added.
