Rajahmundry, Andhra Pradesh: Four persons were arrested after Rs 2 crore unaccounted cash was allegedly seized from them in Rajahmundry, Andhra Pradesh, police said today.

During a raid as a part of poll-related checking, police intercepted a car at Morampudi junction in Rajahmundry late last night and found the four persons illegally carrying Rs two crore, Rajahmundry (Urban) Superintendent of Police Ravi Kumar Murthy said.
