The police received a tip-off of a car theft on Prince Road. On arriving, they gave chase to an escaping white-coloured Toyota Corolla. During the chase, the aged driver tried to escape by hitting the police van but the police managed to arrest him.
According to the police, Qadir had often been stopped by authorities while driving a stolen car, but he had fooled them each time with an elaborate back story.
The old man would drive the cars with a rose garland around his neck. He would lie to the police and claim he was on his way to Umra. The police personnel were fooled by the story and after being offered sweets, they would ask Qadir to offer prayers for them and let him drive off.
Qadir also demonstrated the ease with which he could unlock cars at the police station after he was arrested.

@Faisal: In West they use donuts.
in this country religion is anesthesia for crime....!!!!
Is he related to the Gilani family?
A Houdini in Pakistan. If the Police have been fooled several times by this man then give high marks to this old man.
Not just the sweets, they would let a car go unchecked if there were buga clad "mastoorat" in the car. They don't bother to check as to who is hiding behind the burga.That is one reason people like OBL are able to so conveniently move around. And if you protest about this anomaly, the religious momentarily raise the issue of "chadar and chardiwari". How sad!
Sweets - that's all it takes to fool our policemen!
