Off late, several hoax messages regarding criminal gangs have been doing the rounds on social media. Police have arrested two students for spreading rumours about the movement of a child-kidnapping gang on the outskirts of Hyderabad.
Mohammed Ashwaq, a resident of Omar Colony, and Syed Rahim, from Abushare Colony, both are students.
