Calangute Police recovered three more stolen two-wheelers after the accused recently arrested in the vehicle lifting case disclosed the crime during investigation.
Police had recently busted a gang of vehicle lifters and arrested its two members in Kolhapur, Maharashtra while recovering six vehicles worth around Rs 10 lakh.
With the recovery of three more vehicles the total number of vehicles recovered has gone up to nine and worth Rs 12 lakh.
Almost a month back, Calangute police had received a complaint that the accused had taken a two-wheeler and a car on rent at Baga, Calangute and never returned them back.
The accused had apparently provided fake identity cards at the time of taking the vehicles on rent.
The modus operandi of the accused was to take car/bikes on rent from Goa and change its colour and registration number in Kolhapur and later dispose of the vehicles for a price.
