    Cops said the man resorted to acts of robbery after quitting his job due to "family problems," in order to fund his lavish lifestyle.

  • 35-year-old Sumit Sengupta quit his job five years ago and at that time he was earning Rs. 2.5L a month.

    Being jobless and not possessing money to fund his rich lifestyle that he got used to, caused Sengupta a lot of stress; so much so that in 2015, his wife lodged a cruelty case against him.

    Worsening matters, he's also turned to drugs.

  • His ultimate fall came on December 13, when he was arrested along with his accomplice Nitin Agrawal (25), for snatching a woman's chain in Vashi.

    They made the steal while riding a stolen car and dragged the woman a few feet, before speeding away.

    Police were able to catch them within 24 hours, due to availability of CCTV footage and based on a tip-off.

  • The stolen vehicle in which Sengupta and his accomplice carried out the theft was lifted from outside Fortis Hospital in Vashi on December 9.

    He took away the car after threatening the driver of the vehicle with a 'gun.'

    Interestingly, cops said Sengupta didn't actually place a real gun to the driver's head, but merely a metal object to scare him.
