Bengaluru, Oct 1: The Koramangala police have arrested three persons and recovered 14 two-wheelers that they had stolen from in and around the area.
The accused have been identified as Imran Pasha, Sanjay and Nawaz Khan.
All of them are degree and diploma holders, but chose a life of crime to impress their girlfriends, said the police. They allegedly stole two-wheelers parked in front of houses and went on joyrides with their girlfriends.
“After using the two-wheelers for sometime, they would sell them at throwaway prices and buy expensive gifts for their girlfriends,” said a police officer.
The trio were caught by the police during a random vehicle check. The accused had changed the registration numbers, which made the police suspicious.
Over the past few months, the police have come across several similar cases of youngsters stealing expensive motorcycles to impress women, and then selling them for dirt cheap rates.
In August, a 24-year-old man was arrested for stealing bikes that he used to go on long rides with his girlfriend.
