Speaking to the media here on Saturday, the CI said that criminals residing in Chittoor used to sell the lottery tickets of various States here as against the ban on selling lottery tickets in the State. He said that Ranga Rajan (47), Chittibabu (44) and Thyagaraju (38), residents of Chittoor, used to sell the lottery tickets to the innocent and poor public at lucrative prices.
