They were produced before a court on Saturday, which sent them to jail, Tada said, adding that they had looted Rs 24 lakh worth of jewellery in the past 30 days.
The duo used to loot people, particularly jewellers, with the help of their accomplices from Bijnor, Muzaffarnagar and Ghaziabad districts in Uttar Pradesh, he said.
