Thieves take fancy to car stereos
Panchkula, October 6 The incident took place in Sector 4 where the owners of the vehicles woke up in the morning only to find their vehicles parked in front of their houses with broken windowpanes and without valuable accessories. This is the second such incident in the area. The first incident took place on September 15. The police is of the view that it may be the handiwork of one gang as the modus operandi in both cases is the same. Om Parkash, a resident of the area, claimed that he spotted a radio cab in the area that night and informed the police about it. “I called up the police immediately, but I am not aware whether the police came or not,” said Om Parkash. The cost of the stereos and other stolen belongings runs into lakhs, say the victims. “My Santro was parked just outside the gate of my house. In the absence of any police patrolling, the thieves dared to strike even there,” said Rakesh Chadha, a contractor. “There are security guards in the area, but all arrangements “have failed to check such incidents,” he added. “The incidents of theft are on the rise and we are not feeling safe here. The authorities must intensify vigil and patrolling during nights so that the residents feel secure,” said another resident Pankaj. Meanwhile, a case has been registered and hunting for the accused is on.
