Racket of robbing prospective buyers of iPhones busted
A racket of placing fake advertisements claiming the availability of Apple iPhones for sale and robbing the prospective buyers was busted by the Police in Narammala of the Kurunegala district.
A raid was conducted by the Police after they were alerted by a group of prospective buyers who felt suspicious about the claim made in the advertisement.
A group from Ruwanwella had sought the help of the police. The group had visited the location and had been attacked by the persons claiming to be selling phones.
The Police had opened fire at the group involved in the attack killing one person while two others had escaped from the scene.
Investigations have revealed that the group had placed similar advertisements and were involved in robbing the prospective buyers.
