HYDERABAD: A youth was arrested by the city police on Monday for stealing computer peripherals from shops in the twin cities.
B Kishan (20), an intermediate dropout and resident of Trimurthy Colony in Mahendra Hills, has been committing offences for the last three months.
Computer peripherals, including a laptop, all worth over Rs 2 lakh were recovered from his possession.
Kishan was first taken into custody for selling a stolen motorcycle at King Koti.
After being interrogated, Kishan confessed to having committed five thefts in the city. He said he had stolen a motorcycle from a parking place at Narayanaguda a month ago.
Explaining the modus operandi of the accused, Narayanaguda sub-inspector V Anand Kishore said Kishan would conduct recce of the shops during the day by posing as a customer and strike at night by breaking open the main door locks.
"Kishan used to steal hard disks, CDs and mother boards with the help of a screw driver and sell them to known persons at Park Lane in Secunderabad,"the SI said.
"I used to steal only between 9 pm and 10 pm as there would no police personnel on the roads. Patrolling starts only after 11 pm,"Kishan told the police.
Kishan had also stolen a laptop from a shop on Mount Road in Chennai in November last year when he went to meet his friends there.
The SI said Kishan could easily steal the peripherals as he underwent a course in computers at Chennai.

Police inquiries revealed that Kishan, a native of Guntur, has been committing offences after his parents parted ways.
