PATNA: An FIR has been lodged against unknown persons after a seized SUV parked in front of Agamkuan
police
station in
Patna City
was stolen on Thursday. The matter came to light on Thursday morning only after which the officers posted at the police station got cold feet.
It is the second such incident in which someone dared steal a
vehicle
from police station’s premises. Earlier, the official vehicle of special branch SP was stolen from the police lines just besides Sachivalaya police station on the intervening night of October 8 and 9, 2018. The SP’s vehicle could not be recovered yet.
When contacted, Patna SSP
Upendra Kumar Sharma
said an FIR was lodged against unknown person.
Agamkaun police station
SHO Abhijeet Kumar
said the vehicle was seized from near Zero Mile a fortnight back after it had collided with another vehicle. “There were four occupants, including the driver, inside the SUV and they were in an inebriated state. They were creating ruckus after which police had arrested and forwarded them to jail,” he said.
The SHO said the vehicle was parked outside the police station building which has no periphery. The matter surfaced after someone spotted that the vehicle was missing, he said.
When asked, the SHO said keys of the vehicle are with the police and it was yet not known if the four accused had managed to procure bail from court or not. “No CCTV footage of the incident surfaced. Attempts are being made to track the vehicle, he added.
