6th car of bizman gone

6th car of bizman gone


Little did Abhishek Vaid know that he would never again lay eyes on his Skoda after he dropped of his car for servicing at Oshiwara's Lotus petrol pump on Sunday.
Vaid, who is a studio owner, even paid Rs 3,000 at the pump and informed the workers at the petrol pump that he would return in the evening to pick up his car. By Sunday, he discovered that his car was stolen by someone who had pretended to be his driver. This is the sixth car that Vaid's has reported stolen in the last few years.
The police official from Oshiwara Police Station who is probing the car theft revealed that the accused, who pretended to be a driver, was aware of all the problems for which the vehicle was handed to the service station in Adarsh Nagar in Oshiwara.
This detail made the police suspect that the crime was the handiwork of an insider.
The video of the theft has been captured on a Closed-Circuit Television Cameras (CCTV) and is now being shown to the complainant for identification.
"The accused, who seems to be in his mid-twenties, was seen loitering around Lotus petrol pump and the car for a long time that evening. What seems to be really astonishing is the fact that he knew all the defects of the car in great detail," said Kishore Mastakar, the fuel station owner.
A police officer said that the usual suspects will be questioned along with all the drivers who were employed by the victim.
Incidentally, a few weeks ago, three criminals were arrested near the petrol pump where they had allegedly met to conduct a robbery.
However, Mastakar claims that the police report indicated that the arrest had been made not far from his petrol pump. "Our name was mentioned as the petrol pump is a landmark. Unfortunately, such things bring a bad name to my petrol pump," he lamented.
