The Borivli police recently arrested the final member of a gang of three sisters who stole mobile phones, gold jewellery and valuables across Mumbai. While two of them were arrested by the Pune police a few days back, the third, Shital Upadhayay, 36, was held in Borivli. The police said the sisters would roam around in the afternoon zeroing in on buildings or chawls to rob. Upadhyay is a resident of Kurla west. She is involved in many such cases at Juhu, Versova, Andheri and Goregaon.

Police said on September 24, a Borivli resident, Prajakta Saraf, stepped out to go to the market and her 72-year-old mother Nivedita was home. Prajakta had kept the door unlocked and Upadhyay entered and found Nivedita sleeping. The police said Upadhyay fled with the jewellery worth Rs 8.30 lakh.
