OFF THE WIRE
ALLAHABAD: The police have started an exercise to identify bikers gang operating in city areas. These gangs, police said, are involved in crimes like chain-snatchings and loot.
In the past one and a half months, at least 13 cases of chain- and purse-snatching and loot have been registered in the police records here. Policemen, specially those posted at Georgetown, Dhoomanganj, Kareli, Colonelganj, Kotwali, Khuldabad, Shivkuti, and Daraganj, have been asked to identify such gangs and crack down on them.
On Tuesday, two motorcycle-borne miscreants had looted the gold chain of a woman and escaped from the spot unchallenged.
While police claim to rein in these gangs soon, women, who are often the soft targets of these criminals, want action and not assurance. Police said recently five snatchers were arrested who spilled the beans about the modus operandi of the bikers' gangs.
