In a significant action, the Chakan police traced and arrested a 23-year-old student from Sangamner in Ahmednagar district for stealing motorbikes and illegally selling them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The arrested student has been identified as Abhay Suresh Kharde (age 23, a resident of Zole, Taluka Sangamner, District Ahmednagar). The police have also arrested his accomplices Ravindra Nivrutti Gavhane (age 23, a resident of Anjanapur, Taluka Kopargaon, District Ahmednagar), Shubham Balasaheb Kale (age 24, a resident of Kolpewadi, Taluka Kopargaon, District Ahmednagar), Yash Nandkishor Thutte (age 22, a resident of Chikhali, District Buldhana, currently residing in Ashok Nagar, District Nashik), and Prem Bhaidas Deore (age 20, a resident of Ashok Nagar, District Nashik).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As per the police information, Abhay Kharde has an addiction to online gaming. However, in a few of the online games, Kharde lost his money. Therefore, to recover his lost money, he learnt to steal Royal Enfield bikes on YouTube and started stealing them. Police further informed that after stealing the bikes, he and his accomplices were selling them through online platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the last five months, he stole 18 motorcycles from parking areas of different apartments in Chakan. After receiving multiple complaints of bike theft from the area, the Chakan police started tracing the accused. For this, they examined nearly 150 CCTV footages across the city. With the help of CCTV footage, police finally reached Sangamner and apprehended the accused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the subsequent investigation, the accused confessed to stealing a total of 18 bikes from the Chakan area. He informed that he used to break the lock of the bike and steal it. After that, it was taken to different places and sold. In this, the other two B Tech students helped him to sell these stolen bikes on online platforms. Because of this, they targeted the customers outside the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He further informed that he again lost all his money, which he had gathered after selling stolen bikes in online gaming. Police are investigating further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
