Digital
Desk: At one petrol station in Beharbari, Guwahati, a Dumper truck was stolen.
On June 17, 2022, in the Nongpoh areas of the Ri Bhoi District, the stolen
truck was found.
The
dumper truck with the registration number AS 01 EC 3181, which belonged to one
Dip Sharma of Lokhra in Guwahati, was allegedly taken by unidentified
individuals from the gas station at Biharbari where the truck was parked on the
early morning of June 15, 2022.
Immediately
after learning of the theft, the owner reported the incident to the police at
the Basistha station, and a trace of the truck was conducted. A few friends of
the truck owners made every effort to locate the missing vehicle by gathering CCTV
footage at the Ri Bhoi Toll Plaza, where it was observed that the truck had
passed through the toll plaza on June 16, 2022, at around 4 in the morning.
However,
it has been claimed that the truck owner's friends, working with the Ri Bhoi
District Police, located the missing truck when passing the Nongpoh district. They
subsequently pursued the truck and detained it at a gas station after crossing
Nongpoh.
After the
truck was impounded, it was discovered that the unidentified miscreants had
modified the truck's registration number by adding a duplicate Meghalaya number
- ML 12 1242 and had even changed the owner's name on the dumper truck in an
effort to deceive the public.
However, when the stolen dump truck was halted, one
guy was detained, and the matter was passed to Assam Police for further
investigation. It was initially reported to Basistha Police Station in Assam.
