The Trombay police have apprehended a 19-year-old mechanic who allegedly stole three sports bikes collectively worth R5 lakh to take part in races in Bandra. “The accused, Faridin Noor Mohammad Sayeed alias Fabi, often raced near Bandra Reclamation. Because of his profession, stealing bikes came easily for him,” said an officer. The police said have seized the stolen vehicles from a hospital’s parking lot.
The matter came to light when the complainant Mohammad Anvar Mohammad Shakil Khan, 27, approached the Trombay police to register a complaint as his sports bike was stolen by an unknown person on July 31. “After moving the bike from the space where it was parked, he disappeared with the vehicle in about three seconds. When the complainant noticed that his bike was missing, he rushed to the police station and registered the FIR.” The police said.
