GURUGRAM: Police on Thursday claimed to have busted a gang of vehicle-lifters that used to steal high-end SUVs in Delhi-NCR, particularly Gurugram, and sell them in the northeastern states by replacing the original number plate with a fake one.
The accused would target only fully automatic SUVs. Once chosen, the gang would break open the vehicle’s lock by a high-end master key that allowed them to circumvent the SUV’s security system, police said. They would then change the registration number of the SUV with that of a scrapped vehicle in the northeastern states and then drive it to Nagaland before selling the same through a network of used car shops.
