The Story in Brief
Delhi Police have arrested Gunasekar, 42, and Gokul M, 27, from Tiruchirappalli for alleged thefts from parked cars in the capital. Police said the suspects travelled by train, avoided carrying mobile phones and broke car windows to steal laptops, phones and other valuables. Four laptops, three chargers and a mobile phone were recovered. Investigators linked the items to four cases registered in Roop Nagar, Ashok Vihar and Govind Puri.
The probe began after an advocate reported an iPad theft from a car in Kamla Nagar on July 9. CCTV footage and facial recognition helped identify three suspected gang members, police said. The two arrested men allegedly named Deepak, also known as Kartik, as the gang's leader. Police are searching for other suspects and more stolen property.
The Indian Opinion
The easy story is that an out-of-state gang travelled to Delhi simply to exploit careless car owners. That may be the police theory, but the case is still at the allegation and investigation stage. The arrests and recoveries matter, yet they do not establish every link claimed by investigators. The useful test is whether the remaining suspects are arrested and whether the recovered devices are matched in court to the four cases.
