Two persons arrested for allegedly robbing a 75-year-old woman at knife point at her flat in suburban Jogeshwari last week, police said today.
According to police, one of the duo acts in Bhojpuri films.
The incident occurred last Saturday when two masked men barged into the house of the woman when she was alone and robbed her jewellery.
A case in this regard was registered at Dindoshi police station and a team was formed to trace the duo.
"During investigation, police developed suspicion on the woman's domestic help, identified as Prakash Kamat. We found that he had left the flat minutes before the crime was committed, and returned immediately after the duo had fled," the official said.
During his interrogation, Kamat revealed that he had committed the robbery with the help of one Omkar, also known as Rajesh Panday, who acts in Bhojpuri films, he said.
Pandey was arrested from Jogeshwari yesterday.
The duo have been booked under appropriate sections of the IPC, the official said, adding that further investigation is underway.
