all over India. They are professional criminals and having past criminal record in Haryana & Delhi.

Sonipat, Muzaffar Nagar, Panchkula, Mohali and also involved with their associates Chennai,

Bangluru and many more places in India. Before proceeding to Chandigarh, first they pay

obeisance before their spiritual deity to be successful in their activities. Thereafter, they all switched-

off their mobiles and used to travel in boats from their villages to cross Yamuna River to avoid main

roads and to hide their identifications from Haryana and UP Police. Thereafter, they entered in the

tricity and after committing snatchings and vehicle theft, sometimes, they stayed in the rented

accommodations in the different locations of the tricity. After committing 5/6 incidents, they return

to their villages and a gap of 4/5 days, they again adopt the same modus-operandi. In Chandigarh,

they specially struck the Southern parts of the City in order to leave the city after committing the

crime.

They used to target specially the pedestrian ladies wearing gold chains and by making

excuse of asking the location of a particular place, they convert the concentration of that ladies

and then suddenly get close to the target to snatch their gold chains and flee on Motorcycle after

snatching the gold chains. Thereafter, they disposed-off the snatched gold chains to the local

jeweler namely Chattar Singh who is presently lodged in Ambala Jail. His Production Warrant has

been obtained for 15.03.2017. After the arrest of local jeweler Chattar Singh, they were searching

for new receiver for disposing-off the snatched chains but failing which, they hide these chains at

different places. They are alcoholic and drug addicts and spent the earned money by illegal

means on these activities and to fulfill their other day-to-day demands.

107. 20.01.2018

Gang of Cheaters Busted

The Crime Branch of Chandigarh headed by Insp. Amanjot Singh under the supervision of DSP

Pawan Kumar busted the gang of cheaters who were active in Chandigarh, Punjab, Haryana

,Uttrakhand and in other adjoining states. These gang members have duped financing companies

and banks i.e. Bajaj Finance, HDFC and Capital Finance in crores.

Case FIR No. 21 dated 19.1.2018 u/s 467,468,471,419,420,120B IPC PS-17, Chandigarh was

registered and in this case initially following four accused were arrested:-

1. Ashish Kumar s/o Sh. Rajdeep Mehta r/o House No. 533/6 Village Kajheri, Sector-52,

Chandigarh.

2. Vishal Sahgal s/o Gulshan Sahgal r/o House No. 807/2, Gali No. 3 Ward No. 2, Siwan Gate

Mahadev Colony, Kaithal, Haryana.

3. Shakti Singh s/o Late Sh. Chander Pal r/o House No. 932, Sector-25, Panchkula, Haryana.

4. Sanjeev Kumar s/o Amrit Lal r/o House No. 247, Ph. 6, Mohali (Pb).

From them four mobile phones which they have got financed on fake I.Ds i.e. Aadhar Card

and PAN Card were recovered while they were going to sell these phones in Mobile Market Sec.22,

Chandigarh alongwith few fake I.Ds. All these four accused were produced before the court and

their four days police remand was obtained.

During the course of investigation another three accused involved in this gang members

were also arrested on 20.1.2018 i.e.

1. Amit Katyal s/o Monohar Singh Vill. Badhera, Teh. Haroli, Distt. Una.

2. Kapil Dhingra S/o Tilak Raj R/o # 2569, VPO Lalru, Ward No.7, Distt. Mohali

3. Baldev Singh S/o Late Sh. Bhajan Singh R/o # 99, Guru Nanak Colony, Badmajra, PS.

Balongi, Mohali.

From them fake I.Ds used by them for procuring loan were also recovered.

Modus Operandi:

That Amit Katyal and Kapil Dhingra used to work in HDFC Bank and Bajaj Finance Ltd.

respectively, both of them used to steal the data of the prevailing loan customers and further

provide this data to one Baldev Kumar who used to prepare their fake I.Ds i.e. Aadhar Cards and

PAN Cards and on the basis of these fake I.Ds Sanjeev Gupta, Aashish and Shakti Singh got huge

amount of mobile phones financed from Bajaj Finance, HDFC Bank and Capital Finance and further

they used to sell these finance phones in the local market on a cheaper price, the money obtained

after the sale of such mobiles was distributed among all of them.

From the investigation so far it has come to notice that these cheaters were not only doing

such cheating for their own benefits but also causing huge loss to the customers of such financing

companies whose data has been provided to them by Amit Katyal and Kapil Dhingra, as the

installments of these cheated phones is being deducted from the account of such people who

even don‟t have the knowledge of any such loan and the installments if not paid their account is

going to fall in the category of bad loan.

By unearthing such scam the Crime Branch of Chandigarh Police not only nabbed the real

culprits but also saved the innocent people from being the victim of financial embezzlements.

Sanjeev Gupta, Baldev and Sakti Singh have tainted past, Sanjeev Gupta was arrested

earlier by PS-Ind. Area, Chandigarh in Cheating case, Sakti Singh was arrested by Cyber Cell,

Chandigarh in cheating case and Baldev Singh was arrested by Mohali Police in snatching case.
