MARGAO: Margao Town Police arrested one Vinod Mahato, a 29-year-old native of Muzaffarpur in Bihar, for stealing a motorcycle from its parking place.
During a patrol on Tuesday evening, police noticed Vinod riding a KTM Duke motorcycle (GA-10/B-5769) without the ignition key and finding it suspicious picked him up and brought to the police station.
Vinod did not have the motorcycle key in his possession nor did he have the vehicle’s documents. Above all, he could not answer any question properly and hence police initially arrested him under suspicion.
However, late in the night at around 8 pm the owner of the motorcycle, Ajinkya Tubki Dessai, 21, a resident of Bhatpal, Canacona, arrived to lodge a complaint of his missing motorcycle.
According to Ajinkya, he had parked his motorcycle near Domino’s pizza outlet at Old Market at around 10.30 am and went for work.
When he returned in the evening at 5.30, he could not find it and after searching for it at every possible place, had come to the police station to lodge his complaint.
Following the complaint, Vinod was arrested for theft but Ajinkya will have to wait for some time till he gets possession of his motorcycle.
