His sidekick is a snatch-thief

A drug addict known to be a sidekick of a leading Western Province purohita has gone on a spree of snatching gold chains from women in the area. 

People in the area are reluctant to make complaints against this ‘Kudda’ to Police because of his close connection to the powerful politico. 

Some villagers say they had complained to the purohita himself about the snatch-thief, but the latter would brush off their complaints saying, “That boy is a good chap. I don’t think he would do such things!”
