Jamshedpur police have successfully dismantled a gang specializing in stealing motorcycles and scooters, also known as “two-wheeled vehicles,” based on specific requests. This breakthrough follows a series of investigations into recent vehicle thefts plaguing the area.
Key Arrests in Vehicle Theft Case
In a coordinated effort, officers from Sidhgora and Birsa Nagar police stations apprehended three individuals believed to be central figures in the operation. The arrested suspects are Saurabh Jhingan (also known as Jingal), Vicky Karmakar (also known as Bholu Karmakar), and Dheeraj Pal.
Modus Operandi: Stealing on Demand
Police investigations revealed the gang’s unique method: stealing “two-wheeled vehicles” on demand. They allegedly operated primarily in the Chandil and Chowka regions. Here, they catered to individuals seeking affordable transportation by fulfilling orders for specific stolen models.
The gang required advance payments and detailed information about the desired vehicles before proceeding with the thefts. According to a police spokesperson, the gang’s organized and precise methods made tracking their activities particularly challenging.
