The police caught Vicky first. After this his other associates were caught. Firstly, at the instance of the accused, 12 stolen two-wheelers were seized from their possession. Accused Vicky was said to be selling the stolen vehicles in Odisha through Janak Tandi alias Jani, resident of Chitro Tandi, Bhalumuda Odisha.
Vicky and Janak were taken on remand. Meanwhile, Chitro Tandi is absconding. A 15-member special team of Anti Crime and Cyber Unit has been sent to Odisha to take further action.
