Indrapal Tau is the mastermind

Police investigations have identified Indrapal, alias Tau, as the mastermind behind this entire incident. Indrapal had recently returned to Anupshahr after being released from jail on bail on December 12th. He met Sanjay when he needed money. Sanjay used to drive a tractor for the businessman. Sanjay had informed Indrapal about his employer's large sum of money. Prior to the incident, the criminals had conducted a recce of the businessman's house, after which the crime was carried out.

The case was resolved with the help of Trinetra app and CCTV.

They told the family members that a CBI raid was underway at their place and asked them to cooperate. They then looted and fled.
