On seeing the policemen, the two accused, identified as Paul Daniel Vasil (35) and Costansio Caboo (40), tried to run away but the police nabbed them, an official at Fatorda police station said. The two men were arrested and booked under relevant sections, he added. A skimming device is a card reader which can be disguised to look like a part of the ATM machine. It saves the user's card number and pin code, which is then replicated into a counterfeit copy for theft.
