Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh): As many as 7 people were arrested for posing as ‘Sadhus’ and extorting money from devotees in Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain, as reported on Friday.

It is said that the accused would devotees on the road, threaten to ‘turn them into ashes,’ and extort money and jewellery from them.

The incident came to light after a couple reported a robbery on Thursday. Police immediately conducted a search operation.

A team surrounded the area and arrested all 7 suspects. Gold rings and cash were recovered from their possession.

Shockingly, 5 of the accused have no previous criminal record. Police said they turned to crime due to unemployment.
