Representative imagePATNA: A motorbike was stolen from the premises of a police station in Saran district, much to the discomfiture of the senior police officers. The incident took place on the night of June 19 when three constables — Mukhdev Prasad Yadav, Chandi Lal Rai and Bachcha Kumar — were on night duty while Srichand Paswan was officer on duty. The incident came to light when a video of the stolen motorbike went viral on social media on Monday.
SHO of Kopa police station Diwakar Kumar Kazi said the ‘malkhana’ incharge, who happens to be the custodian of seized exhibits in cases, has been asked to match the record to ensure that the bike had been stolen. A police complaint was lodged on the statement of the SHO with the Kopa police station against unidentified persons. The SHO said he assumed charge only three days ago and was not fully aware of the affairs at the police station.
