Addressing a press conference at Chamkani police station on Wednesday, SP Rural Shafiullah told reporters that a gang of car thieves had been active in the district for a long time and the police had been trying to trace the perpetrators. Finally, they were able to arrest a member of the gang, identified as Sohail, a resident of Civil Colony, said Shafiullah.

During interrogation, the accused told the police about other members of the gang, resulting in the arrest of Irfan, a resident of Badhaber, and Zaban and Fazal Gul, residents of Urmar. Around a dozen stolen vehicles were also recovered from their possession.
Shafiullah said they also arrested a notorious motorcycle snatcher, Sardar Hussain, and several bikes were recovered from his possession.
“The arrest of this gang is very important as these people were engaged in car lifting in an organised manner,” explained Shafiuallah. He added all the stolen vehicles have been handed over to their respective owners.
