Mobile phone snatching and bike thefts are the most common crimes in HSR Layout. Sunil MA realised this the hard way on the night of January 3, 2019. He had stepped inside TBC Sky Lounge on 27th Main Road at around 7.45am. By the time he got out at 1am, he found his bike (KA51 EV3097) was nowhere to be seen. Strangely, the FIR was registered only on January 12, 2019. Working from an office in Sector 4, Sunil had decided to have dinner after work when the theft occurred.
ANOTHER INCIDENT
A few days later, on January 8, Abhinay Thakur was the next victim. The 26-year-old engineer and a resident of Sector 7 had parked his Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 (KA53 EM1084) in front of his house on 9th Main, 19th A Cross at around 7.30pm. When he checked up on it the next day at around 9.30am, the bike was nowhere to be found.
