Gang Stealing Hair Uncovered in Bulandshahr, 5 Arrested

Five thieves were arrested in Bulandshahr for stealing 4.720 kilograms of hair valued at approximately one lakh rupees.

In a bizarre incident in Bulandshahr, police arrested five individuals for stealing a bag filled with hair from a motorcycle. The theft occurred in the Shahpur area, where the victim had left the bag hanging from his bike while attending to shop-related work. Upon returning, he discovered the bag missing and reported the incident to the local police, who were initially baffled by the news of five kilograms of stolen hair.

Following the victim's report, the police conducted an investigation utilizing surveillance and electronic evidence, leading to the arrest of Mohit, Arjun, Tinku, Sanjay, and Bittu. The thieves admitted that their intent was to make quick money by selling the stolen hair, which in the market could fetch a significant price. In their possession, the police also found an illegal knife along with the stolen hair, which has further implications regarding the intentions behind their crime.

This case highlights not only the odd nature of the crime but also raises concerns about safety and security in the area, prompting police to reassess preventive measures against bizarre thefts.
