A team of Crime Branch has arrested two accused, Sachin Sharma, (20) and Amin (40) for sale and purchase of stolen motorcycles through quicker.com. Five stolen motorcycles have been recovered from their possession and five cases of motorcycle thefts across Delhi and NCR solved with their arrest.
The Anti-Robbery Cell received a secret input that two persons would be coming at Agra Canal, Jaitpur on a stolen motor cycle. A team was constituted and a trap was laid. A person riding a TVS Apache motorbike No. HR 51- AS-7095, coming for Kalindi Kunj side, was apprehended.
'He was identified as Sachin Sharma. The original registration number of the motorcycle was found to be DL-3-SCF-4876, which had been stolen,' said a police officer. Accused Sachin further disclosed about purchasing stolen motorcycles from Amin. After receiving the stolen motorcycle, he used to upload the same on quiker.com for sale.
His associate Amin has also been arrested and three more motorcycles (two TVS Apache and one Hero Honda CD Deluxe) stolen from Haryana were recovered.
Sachin, being a student and short of money, wanted to purchase a cheap bike. He was introduced to Amin Khan. Sachin was provided one TVS Apache from Amin at a very cheap price.
According to the police officials, Sachin is proficient in computer software, including photoshop. He arranged dragon sheets from open market, and prepared fake registration certificates.
Further, he downloaded insurance software and edited it to prepare forged RCs, insurance certificates, address proofs, election identity-cards etc. using the fake name of Deepak on a fake Faridabad address. He used to provide original looking R.C, insurance, sale letter on the fake I.D of Deepak.
Amin Khan used to steal TVS Apache motorcycles from NCR and bring them to Sachin for scouting new clients. Sachin adopted a unique modus operandi of uploading the details of stolen motorcycles on quiker.com for sale to entice customers. 'Efforts are being made to apprehend other
culprits, if anyone is found guilty and affect recovery of more stolen vehicles from the accused persons. Concerned police stations have been informed to take necessary action in their respective cases. Further investigation of the case is in progress,' said a police official.
