In a breakthrough for North Delhi police, two men were arrested for a string of mobile snatching incidents after it was revealed they had rented a motorcycle used in the crimes for Rs 5,000 a night. This shocking rental scheme was uncovered during the investigation.
The accused, Zafar and Afzal, were caught by a team from the Civil Lines police station. The motorcycle, registered in Uttar Pradesh and belonging to a resident of Shamli, had been used in the crimes.
