Four persons were arrested for their alleged involvement in looting valuables from two women while they were returning home after watching a movie in the southern part of the citys Jadavpur area, the police said.
Motorbike-borne miscreants looted valuables from the women at gunpoint when they were returning home walking along a lane beside the South City complex after watching a film at 2.15 am Friday, a senior police officer said.
After the women lodged a complaint, police tracked down two bikers carrying a bag with a snake which they often used to scare people before looting them, he said.
Two other gang members were later arrested.
One of the women's purse containing an ATM card and Rs 300 in cash, a single-shot pistol and a cartridge were recovered from them.
