The accused, Safi, a resident of Ranjit Enclave Deep Nagar, was arrested by the police near Dasehra Ground following a well-coordinated operation. Acting on a tip-off, a police team tracked Safi’s movements and apprehended him. Upon questioning, Safi confessed to stealing multiple bicycles from various locations across the city.
The police recovered seven stolen bicycles from his possession, including high-end brands such as Hero Sprint, Motoraces, Suncross, Globate Grande, Newtron, and Hercules.
