Bhubaneswar: Police arrested eight dacoits and foiled their attempt to hijack a car due to alertness of the driver in Boudh district on Sunday.
According to sources, the dacoits in the garb of travellers booked the car from a travel agency, here to go to Balangir on Saturday. On the way, they told the driver, Jitendra Nayak, at gun-point to drive towards Boudh.
