JAMMU, July 3: Despite lapse of over three weeks, police is still clueless about the Maruti Eco van, which was stolen from the jurisdiction of Sarwal police post and shifted to Srinagar overnight during the night hours of June 11 and 12.
As per sources, a Maruti Eco van bearing registration number JK02BT-4571 was stolen from the jurisdiction of Sarwal police post during the intervening night of June 11 and 12 this year.
The vehicle belonged to Rohit Gupta, son of late Ashok Gupta, a resident of Quarter Number 213, Sarwal Last Morh.
The owner of the vehicle reported the matter to police and a case in this regard was registered at Bakshi Nagar police station.
The video footage obtained by the vehicle owner clearly showed that the stolen car had crossed the Ban Toll Plaza at 12.52 am and Chenani-Nashri tunnel at 2:07 am, but due to the dilly delaying tactics by the police, the accused thieves easily managed to shift the vehicle from Jammu to Srinagar overnight.
When contacted, SHO Bakshi Nagar Inspector Ashwani Sharma said that they are trying to trace out the vehicle. “We had informed the Police Department in Srinagar also and hopefully the vehicle will be recovered very soon”.
