“First, I will murder your husband, then we will lift the ATM in Motihari. We will get ₹30 to ₹40 lakh. After distributing the money in the gang, we will escape to Nepal. We will stay in Nepal for a few days. When the situation calms down, then we will come to India. After that, we will work on the next target. We will use a black color Scorpio D vehicle. If the police catch us, we will abandon the vehicle and run away…” The woman reporter who made a contract killing deal for her husband by posing as a doctor, shooter Rudal had shared this plan with her. Just 5 days after this deal, the same thing happened in Motihari as the shooter had planned. Criminals cut the SBI ATM from Bhawanipur Chowk in Raghunathpur and stole ₹36.37 lakh in 4 minutes. A black-colored Scorpio without a number plate was used in this incident, which the shooter had told the woman reporter about. Read and watch in Bhaskar Investigation what plan the shooter shared during the deal and how the crime was executed in the same manner… Shooter revealed his plan to reporter in murder deal Bhaskar’s female reporter posed as a doctor and made a deal with the shooters for the murder of her husband and boyfriend’s mistress. During the deal, Rudal, the leader of a gang of 5 shooters active in the East and West Champaran area, casually shared his other plans with the reporter. Reporter- How many people work with you?
Rudal – Currently, 5 people work with me. Reporter – Okay, so there are five of you?
Rudal – Yes, our gang has five people; any work in Bettiah will be done. Reporter – Oh, you people have that much power?
Rudal – Just throw money, all work will be done. Reporter – What kind of work do you do?
Rudal – Everything – ganja, heroin, smack, cocaine, everything is available. From lifting ATMs (cutting and taking away ATMs) to every big job will be done. Reporter – Okay, so you people are the masterminds.
Rudal – We get a lot of targets for ATMs. We work all the way to Nepal. Reporter – Are you people experts in lifting ATMs?
Rudal – Yes, that’s why we get targets, we work from India to Nepal. Reporter – What kind of ATMs do you lift?
Rudal – Our gang is connected to many places. Whatever work we get, we lift it. Reporter – Do you take weapons for ATMs too?
Rudal – We have a lot of equipment, it’s used only for ATMs. Reporter – If you go to jail in an ATM case, how will our work get done?
Rudal – Leave aside our matter, no one can catch us. Reporter – Can the police never catch you?
Rudal – The police don’t get the mobile. I keep 12 SIMs. The police don’t even get a whiff. Reporter – Be careful while lifting the ATM, if you get caught, then how will my work get done?
Rudal – You people are getting new work done. We have done so many jobs. Reporter – I have also got work to lift an ATM from Motihari. First, I will murder your husband, then I will lift the ATM. Reporter made him reveal secrets about ATM robbery As soon as the shooter revealed the ATM robbery plan, the reporter got busy extracting as much information as possible. During the conversation, the reporter tried to extract information about how ATM robbery or theft incidents happen. Is any outside gang also involved in this? Reporter – How do you decide which ATM to rob?
Rudal – We see which ATM is unsafe, where fewer people come and go at night. Where more money is kept. Reporter – And what do you people do before the robbery?
Rudal – First, reconnaissance is done for several days, and we see which ATMs don’t have guards. Reporter – How many people are involved in the robbery?
Rudal – It’s not a one-person job; different people handle different tasks. Someone keeps watch on the street outside, and someone monitors the activity around the area. Reporter – I see, so you have a complete team?
Rudal – Even the money is tracked, when and how much money will be in the ATM. Reporter – Don’t your faces get identified?
Rudal – No, we only go out with our faces covered. Cameras are installed everywhere, but sometimes the picture does not appear on the camera. When the face is covered, it becomes difficult to identify. Reporter – Aren’t you people afraid?
Rudal – Yes, we are afraid of sudden police patrolling and people around waking up. Many times, even a small sound can spoil the entire matter. Time is decided first for ATM robbery The reporter asked what is the timing of the incident? How do you deal with the police? What do you do if you get a hint from somewhere? On this, Rudal said that there is more surveillance in cities, and there is more danger there. That’s why we target city ATMs less. We mostly carry out incidents late at night or early in the morning, when there is less movement of people. We uproot or break the machine with the help of gas cutters, iron tools, and vehicles. During this, we disable the CCTV and alarm beforehand. Our team has boys who are technically quite expert. Whatever system is installed in the ATM for security, they break it beforehand and disconnect it from the network. Rudal said that the technical expert team members first spray black spray on the camera. No matter how expensive the camera is, it stops working. Whenever we go to work on an ATM, we have a team of 5 to 6 people with us. We use at least two vehicles. After the work, we throw away our mobiles. During this, we also have weapons with us. If there is no trouble, we don’t fire. If someone comes to stop or question us, we also shoot them. They keep two to three targets at a time The reporter asked how many incidents you target at once. If you target all together and get caught, what will happen? Everyone’s plan will fail. On this, shooter Rudal said that my gang doesn’t stop after one incident; rather, we complete several targets in a short time. When there is a big job to do, we prepare several plans together beforehand. They flee to Nepal after the crime Rudal revealed that continuous incidents also confuse the police. After this, the gang gets time to escape. We leave for Nepal after committing the crime. Our arrangements for staying and hiding are made there in advance. The gang members stay there until the police calm down. When the matter is completely settled down, then we return to India. If a name comes up in any incident, they arrange money in advance so that there is no problem in fighting the case and getting out. Even if the police catch any gang member, they get bail quickly on the strength of money. Rudal explained that all preparations are made before doing the work. Money is also there, and the escape route is also decided. During the conversation, Rudal assured the reporter, saying, “Don’t worry, the same will happen in your case too.” After the work is done, we will go straight to Nepal. After a few days, the matter will cool down, and then no one will be able to do anything. No one will be suspected, and no one will get caught. What the shooter told, happened exactly like that The shooter, Rudal, told the reporter who was making the deal that he had a stolen black Scorpio vehicle. He travels with the entire gang in the Scorpio. If there is police checking, the shooters will abandon the vehicle and flee. After this, no matter how much the police investigate the vehicle, they won’t find any clues. Shooter Rudal revealed that he has received a target to lift an ATM in Motihari. According to the shooter, receiving a target means there is a big or outside gang that assigns tasks to Rudal. Rudal explained that the entire plan for the ATM will be lifted. After this, a lot of money will come in. With this money, Rudal and his shooters will fight their case. After the matter cools down, as soon as the next task is received, they will do the next job. Now know how they stole 36.37 lakhs by cutting the ATM in 4 mins On the night of April 28, 36.37 lakh was stolen from an SBI ATM in Raghunathpur, Motihari. The incident was captured on the ATM’s CCTV. Police investigation has also revealed that 4 to 5 criminals were involved in the incident. The criminals had two vehicles, one a Swift Dzire and the other a black colored Scorpio without a number plate. The CCTV footage of the ATM theft clearly shows that the criminals executed the incident in just 4 minutes. Four criminals stole 36.37 lakh from the ATM in a highly planned manner. Before executing the incident, the criminals sprayed black paint on the CCTV installed outside the ATM, so that they could not be identified. After this, they started cutting the ATM machine very quickly. Within about 4 minutes, they cut the machine and took out all the cash kept in it. In this incident that occurred at 2:12 AM at night, the age of the criminals also appears to be the same as shown in the photo sent by Rudal. There is a lot of similarity between the entire incident and the plan described by Rudal. Rudal had told the reporter that he could do any work in the East and West Champaran areas. While demonstrating the strength of his network, Rudal also claimed that if any work happens anywhere in both districts, as well as across Bihar, his gang does it. Rudal gang on police radar based on Bhaskar’s input When the shooter described the plan to lift the ATM in Motihari, even the reporter couldn’t believe it, but 5 days after the deal, when the incident occurred on the night of April 28 in Raghunathpur, Motihari, it seemed that shooter Rudal himself had executed the incident. After this, Bhaskar’s investigation team met with Motihari SP Swarna Prabhat with footage of the deal with the shooter and other details. Based on Bhaskar’s inputs, Motihari police have now also come close to solving the ATM loot case. Along with Rudal, 5 shooters of the gang are on the police radar. Rudal has connections across 3 states Shooter Rudal has a large network operating. Not just Bihar, but he has connections extending to UP, Jharkhand, and Bengal. He runs an entire gang from weapons supply to contract killings. Bhaskar’s investigation has revealed that Rudal has connections with major criminals of UP. He calls criminals from UP to Bihar for crimes, and when there is a demand from UP, he goes to UP with his gang to carry out incidents. ​
