Two of his associates were MBA graduates and they were offered jobs abroad while another man, who was burdened with heavy loan, was told that his loan would be settled. Another associate was offered help to set up a medical shop. All of them were told that they have to take the box and deliver to somebody else. "Just grab the box. It belonged to us. I will take care of the rest,” he told his associates. But the public foiled the plan at time of execution on Tuesday night at Todd Hunter Nagar in Saidapet.

Actually his team had executed their mission after sprinkling chilli powder on the face of the occupants of the car, in which three persons of a courier firm, were carrying nearly 10 kg gold worth `2.5 crore. The finished gold was collected from 16 jewellery makers and was to be delivered to dealers in Mumbai.
