Ahmedabad Police nabbed a gang of mobile phone thieves targeting match audiences on a flight from Jharkhand to steal their phones, wearing special banyans

In Ahmedabad, the squad of Zone-3 DCP has busted a high-tech gang stealing mobile phones. The gang steals mobile phones instead of crowds in different states. Two thieves came to Ahmedabad from Jharkhand in a flight to steal a special IPL match in Ahmedabad. A total of 21 stolen mobile phones have also been recovered from the accused. Two accused arrested from Kalupur railway station On the basis of a tip-off, a team led by PSI VH Rathod of Zone-3 DCP Rupal Solanki's LCB squad arrested two accused named Raghu Mahto and Vikram Mahto from Kalupur railway station. A total of 21 mobile phones were recovered from the accused. The accused had been on the trace since he was absconding earlier He further said that Raghu is Amit Mohanty's brother. Raghu had brought everyone here after operating. The last time he came to steal was when he came to know about the arrival of the police and fled. Since then, we have been tracing Raghu and now we have succeeded in catching him with 21 stolen phones. Phone stolen from IPL matches in Bangalore and Ahmedabad They met us from an area of Odhav and both of them are on a flight this time. He had flown from Jharkhand to steal the particulars. Along with these people, there is one more Tanya who is still missing, we have not yet found him, his name is Omkar. Before the IPL was held in Bangalore and the IPL was held in Ahmedabad on the 4th, he had taken two calls from outside the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore and when the IPL was held on the 4th, he had taken two calls from here. Phone deals in Jharkhand When they come, they steal phones in large quantities from different places and go back to their villages. Sometimes, they even go to Bombay and sell their phones at a cheap price. The thing is that when these people snatch or steal the phone, they lock it inside the silver foil and put the phone away. It is believed that because the signal is not available, so if someone tries the phone, no one's phone will be heard and the location will not be traced. They chose a crowded area for theft After stealing a phone, many people do this by keeping their phone unlocked. So these people stole two phones inside Mehsana. Out of these 21 stolen phones, they were stolen from Bangalore IPL, Ahmedabad IPL, Anand district, Mehsana, Adalaj and Kalupur railway station. In the case of the IPL, they prefer the most crowded places where there is a lot of confusion. In the case of the IPL, they prefer the area from the metro station to gate no-1, which is a very crowded area where people get off the metro at the same time and then do not have the ease of stealing without anyone noticing. Geeta Mandir is a bus stand, such an area is also very much liked by them. He also stole money from the stolen mobile phone If there is a theft and a large number of phones are collected, then you have to leave the place. As far as Gujarat goes, wherever you want to go, you have to collect your phone and then run away. The two phones that were stolen from Mehsana were unlocked, so he immediately downloaded the Google Penny app on it and because the SIM was inside and the phone number was active, so he would get an OTP from SMS, so he also committed cybercrime and also transferred money from that person's account. This is the kind of gang and now we have registered a total of 12 offences on the basis of this. There are 8 to 9 phones that are still in a completely unlocked condition, in which its owner is not currently known, so the process of registering its offense is underway. These people have stolen phones from Chandkheda, Mehsana, Adalaj, Anand Town, Satellite Police Station, Bangalore City, Karnataka, Kalupur Railway Station and so on. He used to sell stolen phones inside Gujri Bazaar There is a small amount of 4-5,000 rupees, but both have been transferred from their phones. This gang is from Maharajpur to Maharajpur Bazaar Panchayat Kalyani Naitula, Thana Anchal Talzari Lage, District Sahibganj, Jharkhand, so this is Naitula Kari Place, which is from small villages around it. They say that they take the phone from here and someone else from there is a Sunday market there and they give the phone at a cheaper price It is. We don't get traced because they don't put any SIM inside it, the phone that is ready to be sold to someone else, and if there is a SIM in it, then we may have a chance to get that phone, but separate its parts and sell it, so those phones are not easily traced. The entire theft was carried out in three layers He has taught the boys simple things like if a bus comes and 25-30 people want to climb together. Then when there is a crowded area like the IPL, 100-200 people get down at the metro station at the same time. Everyone has kids in their hands because they have come to watch the match, so they have brought their children or elderly people with them. So the person has to put his phone in the front case, put it in the back case, where it can be taken out and the person does not know. Secondly, there are three layers in the execution of theft. One is the thief who pulls the phone, one is the person standing near him, he gives it to him, and then he gives it to the person who is sitting 100 meters or 200 meters away from him.
