After viewing the CCTV footage, Nibarun Chandra Barman, the officer-in-charge of Boalia Police Station, said the incident seemed to be prearranged. The footage shows the two Vivo staff members walking along the road, and two people on a motorbike come and snatch the bag from them quite freely. The two employees did not try to stop the hijackers. There was a huge crowd there. This type of thing can happen only if the incident is prearranged.
