After being motivated by the newest movie, Thunivu, an 18-year-old diploma student was detained in Tirupur on Saturday for attempting to rob a bank. J Suresh (18), a resident of Gandhi Nagar in Alangiyam, was the person who was detained; he was enrolled in a private polytechnic college in the area.

As per the police, the crime happened on Saturday at a Canara bank branch in Alangiyam, close to Dharapuram. Around 1:00 PM, a young man entered the bank while wearing a headscarf, a face mask, and gloves.

He demanded cooperation from the workers and customers and threatened them with a rifle, a knife, and a phoney time bomb. The Alangiyam police, however, hurried to the scene after the bank personnel activated the siren.
The patrons attacked the kid with a fire extinguisher and detained him as he attempted to pick up a dropped knife from the floor. He was afterwards turned over to the police. He was attacked by the patrons and sustained a head injury; he was then taken to the Dharapuram government hospital. Police reported that his condition is stable.
