The Nunna police arrested two persons, who collected money from the public pretending to be police personnel.

The suspects, D. Srinivas Naik and Ch. Satyanarayana, residents of the city, intercepted a bike posing as police at Ramachandrapuram cross roads on Sunday.

They asked the driver to produce vehicle documents and reportedly took Rs. 1,000 and escaped.

Following a complaint, the police traced the imposters and recovered a two-wheeler and Rs. 500 cash from them, said the police in a press release on Monday.
